SustAInLivWork aims at creating a Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Lithuania for Sustainable Living and Working (SustAInLivWork), specialized in the development and application of R&I solutions based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the manufacturing, energy, health and transport sectors. This CoE will act as a lighthouse with far reaching impact strengthening R&I in the national and international scope, nurturing from a cooperation between key national partners - the four leading universities of the country- (KTU, VILNIUS TECH, VMU, LSMU) and advanced international ones (TAU, TUHH), that will contribute with their knowledge to boost value creation from advanced technologies. The CoE is necessary to improve the low development of AI based R&I solutions in the 4 mentioned sectors and to increase the sustainability of the country, by developing new business models and business process solutions with lower CO2 emissions, using Explainable AI to make those solutions safe, trustworthy and transparent. It will have an impact on the country and on the whole Baltic Sea Region and beyond, by the operation of 4 HUBs that will derive into new educational and training programmes, an enhanced cooperation with the private sector and public authorities and the creation of a Lithuanian AI Cluster to foster transition towards sustainability with a particular focus on the S3 priorities areas. It will finally improve the Lithuanian position in EU Innovation scoreboards, increase the international collaborations, mobilise national, European and other international funding programmes by creating service packages, AI labs and different collaborations both national and international.
