The Emerging Tech Lab at Inholland is a strategic hub for research and innovation, focused on exploring and applying emerging technologies in education, research, and professional practice. The lab informs and inspires educational programmes by identifying opportunities and needs across disciplines, while supporting staff and students in integrating technologies such as AI, immersive media, and data-driven tools into learning and development.
Through its work, the lab strengthens strategic research by enabling research centres to use emerging technologies as both method and subject of inquiry, fostering experimentation that connects theory and practice. It also drives educational innovation by equipping educators with the knowledge and tools to incorporate new technologies into curricula and create impactful content for creative and professional contexts. In addition, the Emerging Tech Lab plays a key role in collaborative execution, initiating and supporting long-term projects, contributing to grant development, and connecting Inholland with a global network of academic and industry partners.
