Final Conference Like!: The Digital Society HUB

05 September 2019 - Published by Evite van Winkoop

There are many inspiring excursions during the project Like! Final Conference. Why is the excursion to the Digital Society HUB (DSH) going to inspire you? The DSH is a physical & virtual learning community, a breeding ground with technical and digital facilities, where creative and skilled people from the business, education and research world come together to develop and test new opportunities and solutions.

What is an innovation workplace?

Digital Society Hub is an multidisciplinary innovation workplace of the Institute for Communication, Media & IT of Hanze University of Applied Sciences. An innovation workplace is a physical and virtual place where students, researchers, SME’s and larger businesses cooperate to find solutions for societal challenges. In that way the partners learn to look beyond the boundaries of their own field of expertise.

ICT is the connecting factor

The DSH facilitates an experimental environment. There are already several hubs in and around Groningen, focusing on energy (EnTranCe), biobased economy (ZAP) and healthy aging (Health Hub Roden). These workplaces work on their own economic, social and technological goals. Digital Society Hub is the innovation workplace where ICT, communication and interactive media are used to bring energy, healthy aging and entrepreneurship innovations from other hubs together.
