Addressing the Industry 4.0 Skills Gap
On the 5th of November Dr Ing Emmanuel Francalanza presented the results of the ICARUS project at the Chamber of Engineering 28th Annual Engineering Conference, Industry 4.0 | Engineering a Smarter Industry. The ICARUS project was well received and participants were very interested in the open digital training toolbox for Industry 4.0 being developed by the ICARUS partners
After many months of not being able to meet in person, the ICARUS partners held a very productive joint meeting at the Politehnica University of Bucharest in Romania on the 20th of September 2021. Many thanks to the team at UPB CAMIS for hosting us!

More than 80 students from local high schools are taking part today in the first lecture “Trends and Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Industrial Companies” as part of the collaboration program “Uni-meets-School” offered by Prof. Dominik Matt from the Free University of Bolzano in Italy. In this lecture, students learn about Industry 4.0 and Artificial Intelligence. ICARUS project has been presented to the students to disseminate the current progress in the Erasmus+ project.
In this first step of the project we are collecting the training needs and requirements of the various stakeholders in this project, especially when it comes to non-traditional forms of training, such as online learning.
