LEADS driving the management and leveraging the expertise, values, and training programs of the SPECIALISED projects

At the helm of the ADSEU platform is LEADS, driving the management and leveraging the expertise, values, and training programs of the SPECIALISED projects. LEADS is the facilitator and connector across various project portfolios, connecting the gap between key communities, initiatives, and fostering collaboration among industry stakeholders and demand generators. This inclusive approach extends to fostering connections with Digital Innovation Hubs, particularly SMEs and startups, to drive innovation and propel the growth of advanced digital skills in Europe.

Our mission is to establish a dynamic digital ecosystem that brings together researchers and innovative industries, propelling Europe to the forefront of emerging digital talents. Through strategic partnerships and collaboration, we aim to support the development of outstanding education and training institutions that will drive innovation and foster digital breakthroughs.

At the heart of our initiative is developing a tertiary degree education programme with flexible options of 60, 90, or 120 academic credits. We provide funding to tertiary education institutions, in collaboration with competence and excellence centres as well as industry partners, to create and enhance exceptional courses in the areas that matter most in todays digital landscape.
