Professorship for Information Management

The Professorship for Information Management is now part of wisawi, Saxony's central digital innovation and networking platform. As a member of the Saxony5 network, we are thus strengthening our presence in Saxony's innovation ecosystem and contributing our expertise in research, teaching and transfer in a targeted manner.

One example is our range of services for the "Automated generation of synthetic image data sets and the development of AI models for computer vision applications". With this technology, we enable companies to create photorealistic training data quickly and cost-effectively, for example for quality control, maintenance or assembly. In this way, we help to reduce waste, make processes more efficient and reduce the workload of employees in the long term.

In future, we will bundle and visualise further offers and services on the platform. We also use wisawi to announce and support our events. This will create a central point of contact for companies, start-ups, researchers, public stakeholders, networks and transfer initiatives who want to find out about current developments and engage in dialogue.

In line with our motto "Better together", we see wisawi as a place where collaboration, knowledge exchange and mutual support take centre stage. This is also reflected in our open hardware projects such as "Open Science Hardware Instruments for Scientific Experiments" and the "Open Source Hardware InnOvation Platform" transfer room, which are based on the principles of open innovation culture and joint innovation and give all interested parties the opportunity to contribute, think ahead and benefit from collective ideas.

At the same time, we invite all partners to actively use the platform:

• Companies can present their product innovations or services, post offers in the innovation marketplace and benefit from a wide selection of relevant events.
• Start-ups can find contributors, research innovations , sources of funding and support programmes as well as valuable information on events throughout Saxony.
• Researchers present their results, find cooperation partners and publicise their own events to promote transfer and innovation.
• Public stakeholders share projects and events, gain partners for new ideas and create their own groups for joint project work.
• Networks & clusters increase the visibility of their projects, companies and start-ups and can specifically highlight events and initiatives to increase their reach and impact.
• Innovation and transfer players benefit from a high profile and numerous opportunities to initiate new projects and collaborations between science and industry.
