Abstract:
Artists can play a major role in the success of innovation. The European program STARTS aims to increase their impact in high-tech environments. An international consortium has the mission to implement 45 residencies and set a complete framework for such partnerships. The authors identify methodological gaps from the literature and observe how the STARTS program fills them. The authors discuss the impact of the implemented solutions, providing the leading global study on this large-scale action. The resulting residency framework, including the methodology and its associated tools, will be released publicly, making it available to institutions and companies.
