when you have someone to talk
about it with.

Areas of action MOAI LABS
Recipients
Entities from three European countries come together in the project, which is aimed at:
- Public actors for innovation and technology transfer (regional innovation agencies).
- Economic and socio-occupational actors/Business organisations.
- Technology/science centres and parks.
- Hospitals, clinics.
- Public opinion in general.
- Other public actors in innovation and technology transfer (regional innovation agencies).
- Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).


Areas of action
MOAI Challenges. We create technological challenges.
A MOAI challenge is an innovative technology that addresses one or more dimensions of isolation/loneliness, as well as a community action methodology to implement it.
Each challenge will be led by a company or innovation agent (technology centre/expert) and requires different expertise to be carried out.
Challenges will focus on driving technological concepts or innovations in emerging areas of expertise such as artificial intelligence (AI) and big data, (e.g. learning algorithms to detect and/or predict trends), and virtualised assistants and/or social robotics (e.g. conversational agents such as chatbots, social bots) to better address loneliness and social isolation.

What is SUDOE.
The Interreg Sudoe Programme supports regional development in south-western Europe, financing transnational projects through the ERDF Fund. It promotes transnational cooperation to address common problems in that territory, such as limited investment in research and development, lack of competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises, and exposure to climate change and environmental risks.
The projects approved by the Programme fit into one of the five priority axes where transnational cooperation has the greatest impact in south-western Europe. The MOAI LABS project fits into axis 1 of Research and Innovation.
