Description du projet
Soutenir les PME pour trouver des solutions urbaines intelligentes
Les systèmes urbains d’aujourd’hui doivent s’adapter à la population croissante afin d’offrir un environnement sain, intelligent et vert, et de le préserver. Il convient pour cela de disposer de technologies, de solutions et d’innovations intelligentes. Le projet URBAN TECH, financé par l’UE, soutiendra l’accélération du succès concurrentiel des PME européennes grâce au lancement de produits et de services nouveaux ou sensiblement améliorés à plus forte valeur ajoutée, dans les secteurs industriels des technologies de la santé, des villes intelligentes et des écotechnologies. Le projet rassemblera également les différentes parties prenantes de la chaîne de valeur industrielle afin d’aider les PME à faire passer leurs solutions à l’échelle supérieure.
