DIH-World - Accelerating deployment and matureness of DIHs for the benefit of Digitisation of European SMEs

SMEs can benefit significantly from adopting digital technologies. However, few have the resources and know-how to do so. The EU-funded DIH-World project therefore aims to accelerate the uptake of advanced digital technologies by European manufacturing SMEs. Furthermore, it aims to help these SMEs build sustainable competitive advantages and reach global markets, in this way strengthening the capacities of regional digital innovation hubs (DIHs) across Europe. To do so, it will provide DIHs with access to harmonised tools, effective technologies and methodologies, smart investment sources and rich training assets. By accelerating the matureness of DIHs, the project aims to help them capitalise on European DIH networks and leverage their resources and facilities to benefit their local SMEs.
