Welcome to EU.FFICIENT, a pioneering initiative poised to revolutionise co-creation practices across Europe. At the heart of our project lies a commitment to fostering vibrant Communities of Facilitators dedicated to advancing co-creation methodologies through targeted training, extensive networking, and immersive hands-on experiences. EU.FFICIENT is designed to empower Expert Facilitators with tailored resources and a dedicated platform, facilitating seamless access to cutting-edge tools and methodologies. Through our innovative approach, we aim to bridge sectoral divides and enhance collaboration among industry, academia, and the public sector. Our platform, initially piloted across four thematic communities – Advanced Manufacturing, HealthTech, Mobility, and AI/Digital – embodies our vision for a more efficient and effective co-creation landscape. Join us as we embark on this journey to redefine collaboration in Europe and beyond.
