The Research in Societal Enhancement group brings academics from various disciplines and stakeholders from many sectors of industry and society to shape the future by finding solutions that enhance sustainably our society and economies.
The group exists within the Institute of Artificial Intelligence since 2018, having an impressive track record in high impact applied research. Every single project we have and currently purse is around a stakeholder that has a problem and is requiring an explicit usable outcome.
Our members bring a wealth of expertise and knowledge.
