HOW DO WE MOVE PEOPLE TO EMBRACE MORE TECHNOLOGY?

A day without technology is hard to imagine in our daily lives. Society is now geared to it. Think of all the new tools and apps we use every day to arrange all sorts of things: shopping, reserving a table in a restaurant to video calling your doctor. Useful for ourselves, but also for municipalities, healthcare institutions and other social organizations. After all, they use these modern technologies to keep residents independent, get them moving, and prevent them from needing more intensive, costly assistance. But what’s the point if these initiatives are not used or used infrequently? Often things go wrong in implementation and adaptation.

In four rounds, we will go through application areas in which digital tools and modern technologies play a major role. What are the success factors, where are the pitfalls and above all: how do we put the user first?

ABOUT #DID23

Meet the architects of the future at the Dutch Innovation Days (DID) on May 11, 12 and 13 in Enschede. With 57 speakers, three stages, a groundbreaking expo, TecHeart After Party, business meetups, the National Science Quiz and a Startup Day, there is much to experience.

For three days from May 11 to 13, the DID has the quality of a business event, but also the atmosphere of a quirky festival. The DID is there for investors, founders, students, designers, creatives and innovators. In short: a curious audience.

The collaboration with Campus Café fits perfectly: we bring together Twente’s innovation community. New technologies, innovative and international entrepreneurship and binding talent are central.
