About
Technical University of Košice (TUKE) & KE Transformers team at Faculty of Economics
The Technical University of Košice (TUKE) is a leading Slovak research university actively engaged in European R&D and innovation projects. Through our specialized KE Transformers team, we combine robust expertise in advanced digital transformation, automation, and innovation ecosystem building. By leveraging our Living Labs infrastructure, we seamlessly bridge the gap between physical industrial systems, digital solutions, and stakeholder communities to accelerate sustainable technological development.
Areas of Cooperation for DEICy 2026:
-
Simulation, Engineering & Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS): Deploying LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) and sLCA (Social Life Cycle Assessment) methodologies within Digital Twin environments to evaluate the environmental footprint and socio-economic impacts of production, automation, and logistics processes.
-
Data Science & AI: Developing advanced machine learning, deep learning solutions, and advanced data analytics tailored for smart feedback loops, automated scheduling (MES/APS/SCADA), and industrial challenges.
-
Industrial Automation, Connectivity & Edge Computing: Integrating smart sensors, robotics, and 5G networks with localized data processing at the edge to optimize real-time machine performance and eliminate transmission delays.
-
Cybersecurity, Cloud & Energy: Securing IoT endpoints and cloud infrastructure with a focus on cyber threat mitigation for advanced energy storage systems, smart grids, and sustainable industrial assets.
-
Digital Transformation & Innovation Ecosystems: Facilitating the digitization of product and service offerings through real-life experimentation environments (Living Labs), startup support, and cross-sector collaboration.
Our Added Value for Projects & Partnerships:
We seek research institutions, business partners, and industry experts to join forces for Horizon Europe projects. We are ready to contribute significantly through:
-
Conducting comprehensive LCA and sLCA assessments to validate the green, operational, and social impact of newly developed Industry 4.0 and CPS solutions.
-
Designing and implementing co-creation methodologies, stakeholder engagement, and user-centric testing for industrial applications - Energy, Circular economy across Industry sectors, SMEs, Cities, Public Health
-
Deploying and managing Living Labs for real-life testing, digital twins simulation, and behavioral tracking of technological adoption.
-
Driving societal impact, communication, dissemination, and ecosystem building to align technical advancements with the digital economy and society.
