Digital Data Design Institute

Because AI changes everything

 

Our Digital Data Design Institute is an affiliate of the D^3 at Harvard, founded in 2022 on the premise that AI technology is only half the answer and that businesses must also revamp their processes to harness AI’s potential. The D^3 Institute is a partnership between Nova SBE, Nova Medical School, and the D^3 at Harvard. ​

Based at Nova SBE’s Carcavelos campus, D^3 fosters interdisciplinary scientific research that helps businesses navigate the fast-evolving tech landscape.​

We believe the coming years will require extensive testing and experimentation with various technologies. With this in mind, the institute aims to support companies in understanding emerging technologies and seamlessly integrating them into their operations.​

By blending cutting-edge academic research with real-world applications, the institute delivers valuable insights, strategies, and tools to help organizations navigate technological transformation and ensure their competitiveness in an increasingly interconnected and human-tech-integrated world.

After just a few years the D^3 at Harvard has tremendous momentum as a platform to develop exciting ideas combining technology with real world impact. I was mostly impressed by the quality of the network it has, which adds massive value to the ecosystem. I have no doubt the program with SBE will generate similar momentum for students, faculty and corporate partners to explore exciting opportunities together.
