MainlyAI in Production and Logistics project EXPLAIN


MainlyAI has, together with AstraZeneca, Hitachi ABB, KTH, Scania, and Uppsala University, been granted funding by the Swedish governmental funding agency, VINNOVA, in the Production 2030 call. The project, named Explainable and Learning production & logistics by Artificial Intelligence (EXPLAIN) will run over three years with a total budget of 13 MSEK.


The aim of the EXPLAIN project is to increase the profitability, sustainability, and competitiveness of the Swedish manufacturing industry by an innovative combination of virtual production technologies and AI algorithms. EXPLAIN will explore this this combination as a unique way to provide increased access to new knowledge and skills in the production area, which is not possible with the current industrial practice of applying virtual production technologies alone.

“We are looking forward to participate in this very strong consortium and to contribute with our AI competence and solutions in the area of production and logistics – an area in which we see a great potential for more AI solutions”, says Elena Fersman, CEO and co-founder of MainlyAI.  


The application was allocated full funding amount by VINNOVA in strong competition, with the success rate of less than 20%. A complete list of funded projects can be found at https://produktion2030.se/grattis-till-atta-nya-projekt-2021/ (in Swedish).


We are looking forward to collaborating with esteemed partners, such as Scania, AstraZeneca, Hitachi ABB, Uppsala University and KTH.
