How can AI support home care services? How can AI save time and free up resources? Together with Microsoft, Atea and Skellefteå, Lidingö City launched a pioneering project in generative AI. It all began with a mini-hackathon where departments and offices were invited to participate and generate ideas.
The event was open to anyone interested in the development and implementation of GenAI from an organisational and/or technical perspective. It was particularly aimed at decision-makers and practitioners within municipalities, regions, and the wider public sector. We also welcomed anyone simply curious to learn more – and offered coffee and refreshments.
We were also pleased to welcome Sweden’s Minister for Civil Affairs, Erik Slottner, as part of the programme.
Missed it? No problem – the day was recorded. You can watch the clips on our Scene for AI webpage. A link is provided further down this page.
