Today, innovation processes are often out of reach for smaller organisations and rural municipalities due to a lack of expertise, high costs and time-consuming methods. This risks weakening both competitiveness and societal resilience at a time of climate targets, digitalisation and growing demands for crisis preparedness. By exploring and testing how artificial intelligence can be integrated into innovation processes, the project creates new, more accessible and efficient ways of working that free up time for value-creating activities. The project thereby enables more organisations to take part in the green and digital transition, while strengthening the region\u2019s overall capacity for innovation.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Goals<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The goal is to develop and test AI-supported methods that make innovation work more accessible, time-efficient and scalable, and to increase understanding of the strategic value of AI. The target group consists of innovation leaders, change leaders and decision-makers in the public sector, small and medium-sized enterprises, business support organisations and non-profit organisations. The project takes a needs-driven approach, using interviews, workshops, research, testing of AI tools and dissemination activities.<\/p>\n\n                <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section data-block=\"logo-list\" class=\" pb-10 md:pb-16 lg:pb-24\">\n    <div class=\"wrapper\">\n        <h2 class=\"heading-md text-center mb-7\">Funders<\/h2>\n                <div class=\"flex flex-wrap items-end justify-center gap-6\">\n                            <div class=\"logo-bubble logo-bubble--large p-6 \">\n                    <div style=\"background-image:url('https:\/\/www.skellefteasciencecity.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Bla_gul_Hoger.png');\"><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"logo-bubble logo-bubble--large p-6 \">\n                    <div style=\"background-image:url('https:\/\/www.skellefteasciencecity.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/RV_Logo_Liggande_300dpi_RGB.png');\"><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section data-block=\"team\" class=\" pb-10 md:pb-16 lg:pb-24\">\n    <div class=\"wrapper\">\n        <h2 class=\"heading-md mb-8\">Contact<\/h2>\n        <div class=\"content-grid gap-y-10\">\n                                                                    <div class=\"team-card col-span-full sm:col-span-6 lg:col-span-4 rounded-3xl bg-white z-10\">\n                        <div class=\"pt-7 pb-1 px-6 border-b border-black flex justify-between gap-x-6 flex-wrap\">\n                            <p class=\"label\">Innovation Manager<\/p>\n                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"p-6\">\n                            \n                                                            <div class=\"aspect-[0.96\/1] mb-15 rounded-[10px] overflow-hidden w-3\/5 ml-auto mb-7\">\n                                                                        <picture class=\"w-full \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.ohmyhosting.se\/d3mjWWeWZhZsLFvAv-EHcYSguF0=\/0x0\/smart\/filters:quality(85)\/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.skellefteasciencecity.se%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2024%2F08%2Fjimmy2-600x600-1.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.ohmyhosting.se\/d3mjWWeWZhZsLFvAv-EHcYSguF0=\/0x0\/smart\/filters:quality(85)\/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.skellefteasciencecity.se%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2024%2F08%2Fjimmy2-600x600-1.jpg 1x, https:\/\/images.ohmyhosting.se\/d3mjWWeWZhZsLFvAv-EHcYSguF0=\/0x0\/smart\/filters:quality(85)\/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.skellefteasciencecity.se%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2024%2F08%2Fjimmy2-600x600-1.jpg 2x\" alt=\"\" class=\"w-full object-cover object-center h-full w-full\" height=\"0\" width=\"0\" \/><\/picture>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                        <h3 class=\"heading-sm\">Jimmy Antonsson<\/h3>\n                                                            <p class=\"mt-3\">Email<\/p>\n                                <a href=\"mailto:jimmy@skellefteasciencecity.se\" class=\"font-bold hover:underline\">jimmy@skellefteasciencecity.se<\/a>\n                                                                                        <p class=\"mt-3\">Phone<\/p>\n                                <a href=\"tel:46760274965\" class=\"font-bold hover:underline\">+46 76 027 49 65<\/a>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"featured_media":5187,"parent":0,"menu_order":13,"template":"","categories":[75,75],"class_list":["post-6510","projects","type-projects","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-projekt-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
