Every evening, starting from the 19th of November, multiple teams of active persons gathered and worked on the selected challenge solving. All of them had mentoring sessions, but the main responsibility remained in the participants hands to generate, clarify, finalize ideas. All teams worked on artificial intelligence (AI), its tools and methods application possibilities to change the situation and solve the challenge.
During the process of idea generation, the importance to find a platform for idea sharing and network for collaboration was highlighted. The example of MERIT and SustAInLivWork project collaboration organizing the 2nd international MERTIhON was used as an example. Participants found out how both of the project can serve their needs upskilling advanced digital skills and providing tools as well as mentoring to go further with AI based ideas, its growth and sustainability.
The most dedicated teams will pitch their ideas on the evening of the 22nd of November. If you are interested in how the AI could help solving different challenges or are eager to exploit the potential of the ideas and participants potential – join the MERIThON event, at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University.
