digitize wood is based at the Cluster of Excellence IntCDC at the University of Stuttgart and is funded by the Ministry of Rural Areas Baden-Württemberg (MLR) as part of the Holzbau-Offensive BW. In this context, the platform digitize wood creates an interface between the two institutions: It supports research by building a lively network and promotes climate-friendly construction in the spirit of the state government.
In regular network meetings, digitize wood organises the two-way knowledge transfer between representatives from research at the Cluster of Excellence IntCDC as well as from industry, mechanical engineering, tool manufacturing, crafts and planning in Baden-Württemberg. The network meetings are intended to generate ideas for future cooperation projects between research and practice.
In addition, digitize wood organises training courses and workshops, networks with other timber construction initiatives and is involved in public relations for timber construction.
