5 reasons why INFAB HUB is for you

Digital transformation is already a reality, but many companies, especially SMEs, still find it difficult to integrate technology into their processes and products.

In Europe there are big differences between countries and sectors, and especially between large and small companies, since in the case of SMEs only one in five is highly digitiSed.

Bridging the digital divide

To respond to this digital divide, the European Union launched in 2016 the Digitising European Industry Strategy, in which Digital Innovation Hubs play a key role.

The Digital Innovation Hub is a centralised point that connects companies with the various key players in the innovation process.

For practical purposes, the hub is a one-stop shop from which companies can receive the advice they need to respond to their needs.
