Case studies

At TechConnect, our case studies take an in-depth, systems-level approach to understanding the real-world impact of digital transformation. Over a six-month period, we analyse how technology interacts not just with users but across entire ecosystems, teams, departments, and industries. Our focus on the healthcare sector provides valuable insights due to its diverse workforce, rapid digital advancements, and critical human-technology interfaces. By mapping occupations and engaging cross-sectoral stakeholders, we ensure that our findings can be extrapolated to manufacturing, mobility, energy, agriculture, and services, driving innovation across key EU industries.
