Infosys Foundation USA, a non-profit organization, announced the launch of the Tech Innovation Lab at Discovery Place Science in Charlotte, NC. The lab provides deep learning and exploration through the Infosys Springboard next-generation digital learning platforms and offers over 11,000 free courses.
Learners can access extensive learning content, including free courses in GenAI and emerging technologies and a vast library of educational tools for teaching computer science and maker education.
Through individual account creation, learners can experience curated learning paths, certificates, and collaborative features. Since its launch, Infosys Springboard has continued expanding its reach to learners as part of the Infosys ESG Vision 2030 commitment to reach 10 million globally globally by 2025.
The immersive GenAI-led experiences, initially developed in the Infosys Living Labs, are designed to amplify the human potential of learners and visitors to the space.
The Tech Innovation Lab features a GenAI Avatar that listens and responds to real-time questions, and a GenAI-powered story generation wall called TogetherTales so students, adults, and families can design personalized AI-generated creations.
