 Platform 5: Network & Skills

Platform 5 will establish the DM² Network & Skills Platform to drive engagement and collaboration across key stakeholder groups involved in medicines manufacturing and investments.

The Network brings together the IDT-using community and other relevant academic and industrial groups to share developments across pharmaceuticals and broader digital manufacturing sectors ensuring cross-sector diffusion of DM² research. Existing strategic networks will support the activities and act as gateways for IDT dissemination and uptake.

The lack of appropriate skills in the workforce has been highlighted as a key barrier to IDT adoption. A DM² priority is to identify skills needs and with partners develop and deliver training to 100+ users.

Location:
University of Strathclyde

Platform Lead:
Prof. Alastair Florence, Director, CMAC

The objective:
Leading engagement, collaboration and skills development by establishing the DM2 network & skills programme to socialise IDTs across the industry and enable the skilled workforce to thrive in digitalised labs of the future.
