▶Objectives
The X-ACT project aims to equip business students with practical, future-oriented skills to navigate AI-driven workplaces and lead hybrid human-AI teams effectively. It advances digital transformation in higher education by developing and evaluating a multilingual, experiential leadership training simulation that integrates virtual reality and Generative AI. The project promotes scalable, open-access adoption of this digital innovation across European business schools and beyond.
▶Activities
X-ACT will be implemented through 4 phases: ideation and design, prototype development, pilot implementation and evaluation, and dissemination. Activities will involve the creation of immersive VR scenarios and AI-driven team interactions, iterative testing and refinement of the simulation, and its integration into business courses at partner universities. The project will conclude with the publication of open-access training materials and dissemination events to ensure adoption and scalability.
▶Impact
X-ACT will deliver a fully developed and validated prototype of a VR/AI simulation designed for leadership skills training for hybrid human-AI teams, along with a comprehensive teaching playbook on how to integrate the simulation into business education curricula. The project’s results will be disseminated through academic publications, workshops, and promotional media.
