FIND (Foundation for Industry) consortium will contribute to automating complex industrial tasks for a resilient high-tech industry in the Netherlands.
The Dutch Research Council (NWO) and the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs have granted financial support to the ‘FIND” consortium for competitive industry with AI, in the context of their research program called “Perspectief”.
In the FIND (Foundation for Industry) consortium, KeyGene and another eleven companies, together with six knowledge institutes, join forces to develop large artificial intelligence (AI) models that will contribute to automating complex industrial tasks for a resilient high-tech industry in the Netherlands.
FIND is one of the four granted consortia in “Perspectief”, which will receive 19 million Euro in total.
The FIND consortium will develop large artificial intelligence (AI) models. The applications targeted by the researchers require new, more powerful AI-models with improved robustness and transparency. Moreover, these models must be able to work with various unexplored types of data. They must be able to be hosted on edge devices such as smartphones or tablets to speed decision-making while maximising privacy. Increasing automation across the high-tech, chip industry, and healthcare segments helps maintain an efficient and competitive Dutch industry and society.
The project builds on international, state-of-the-art AI technology and will develop a novel pre-competitive AI ‘toolkit’ comprising documented and open-source trained models, the necessary software for training and integration, and validated research results.
