Project’s description:

Digi Content, is a project designed to address fragmentation and skills gaps in the European Creative and Content Industries (CCI), and aims to leverage the potential of Extended Reality (XR) technologies. The primary goal is to enhance the competitiveness of the CCI by empowering regional development agencies to effectively support innovative XR projects, with a focus on AI-driven content creation.

The project addresses four critical challenges:  market fragmentation, skills gap, investment challenges, and the need for an ethical and sustainable framework. It aims to enhance regional development policies focusing on digital innovation in the Creative and Content Industries (CCI) through Extended Reality (XR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies.

postar malDigi Content merges advanced tech like XR, including AI, deep learning, virtual production, and federated learning, with a policy-focused strategy to enhance regional innovation.  It will explore the strategic utilization of pooled computing resources and federated learning, recognizing their crucial role in the deployment of XR/AI technologies across Europe. Its cross-sectoral nature merges advanced tech like XR and AI with the CCI's distinct demands, ensuring a policy-focused strategy that enhances regional innovation policies.

Specific objectives of the project

  1. Promote Innovation and Competitiveness: Foster cross-regional collaboration and knowledge sharing to improve the CCI sector's competitiveness

  2. Develop Skills and Capabilities: Bridge the skills gap in XR and AI by providing targeted support and training, empowering regional development agencies to facilitate skills development.

  3. Facilitate Investment and Growth: Pool computing resources to train complex AI models efficiently, promoting tailored investment models and scaling strategies

  4. Ensure Ethical and Sustainable Development: Implement federated learning approaches for secure, privacy-conscious AI development, maintaining data confidentiality and European sovereignty.
