European federation of Digital Innovation Hubs (DigiFed)

The DigiFed project aims to drive the digitalisation of European industry in the field of cyber-physical and embedded systems in all industrial applications. It supports the development of new products and innovative solutions that integrate physical and digital systems to address specific industrial challenges and meet societal and market needs.  

In particular, it aims to drive the adoption of digital technologies in small and medium-sized enterprises that are not based in the high-tech sector. DigiFed supports selected innovative companies through various innovative programmes and cooperation structures, the so-called "DigiFed Innovation Pathways". These "Pathways" also aim to promote industrial cooperation across Europe and facilitate SMEs' access to new markets.
