X4HPC and BSC’S Third Innovation Journey Program drives technology transfer

 

The 2023 edition of the Innovation Journey, the Barcelona Supercomputing Center‘s technology transfer training programme, wrapped up remarkably on Wednesday, December 13, amidst the Tech Spirit Barcelona event, marking a remarkable conclusion to a series of impactful sessions.

Tailored for researchers nurturing entrepreneurial aspirations, last year’s programme engaged 15 projects across 7 training sessions, aiming to equip participants with the essential tools and resources to materialise their most innovative concepts. 

Distinguishing itself from previous editions, the 2023 programme expanded its scope, welcoming researchers not just from the Barcelona Supercomputing Center but also from the X4HPC network. This inclusive approach fosters collaborative synergies among diverse research entities, fostering a richer ecosystem. 

The programme’s grand finale unfolded at Llotja de Mar during the Tech Spirit Barcelona event, offering attendees insights into the showcased projects and celebrating the achievements of the award winners. 

The OneCareAI project was one of the winning initiatives from the Innovation Journey Programme. The project focuses on enhancing stroke risk prediction using AI technology. Through collaboration with Norrsken Barcelona, it earned a year-long HouseMembership, granting full access to their space and innovation hub community.  The work was conducted the the BSC researchers, Daniele Lezzi and Davide Cirillo, who brought forward these studies in cooperation with the AI-SPRINT project.
