About

The Polytechnic University of Tirana (UPT, Albania EIT Regional Innovation Scheme) offers a partner for the human-centric, workforce and ESG dimension of AI and industrial-technology consortia.

We contribute: digital HRM and HR/people analytics; human–AI collaboration and AI adoption at the workplace; workforce upskilling and competency development for working alongside AI; "knowledge capture" and transfer from an ageing/retiring workforce; and social sustainability and responsible-AI adoption (ESG, CSRD/ESRS S1 on own workforce). UPT also brings a Western Balkans testbed of manufacturing SMEs and engineering-management expertise.

Background: active Working Group member in COST Actions HUMAN-IT (Digital HRM, AI & HR Analytics) and LeverAge (multi-age workforce); hands-on Horizon 2020 operational experience (EUSCREEN); UPT is a beneficiary in the Horizon project AHEAD and hosts the LAIA Laboratory on Artificial Intelligence.

We are seeking consortia e.g. under Cluster 4 Made in Europe / Human–AI collaboration for the workforce (CL4-2027-02-DIGITAL-EMERGING-52) and related industrial/digital calls that need a workforce, human-factors, adoption or impact work package and value an EIT RIS (Western Balkans) partner.
