🔍FOCUS on DigitUp action plan!

DigitUp acted as a mapping of needs in SME managers and self-entrepreneurs in relation to digital transformation.
To obtain the information needed, the desk research has put forward 3 areas of interest:
👉Status quo of digital transformation in business sector
👉Support and obstacles to digital transformation
👉Exploitation of BIC technologies: Big Data, Internet of Things and Cybersecurity

🎯The European Union aims to achieve a 75% digitalization rate for SMEs by 2030, but there are significant discrepancies between EU members. The lack of digital transformation in SMEs makes them less competitive than larger companies, leading to a brain drain phenomenon and negatively impacting the economy.

The COVID-19 pandemic initially forced SMEs to quickly digitalize, but subsequent economic weakness caused a decrease in investment. The lack of infrastructure, awareness, support, capital, understanding of cybersecurity, and human capital are major obstacles to digitalization, and not only private but also public services require adaptation.💻

✨Depending on our critical findings, we are proposing resolution means via DigitUp Project:
1. Develop assessment tools for digital skills measuring
SMEs will be provided with instruments, training sessions and support materials that will allow them to regularly assess their workers’ skills. As such, gaps in skills will be easily identified and tackled.

2. Provide free access to high quality and up-to-date information, material, training, support
SMEs will have an equal opportunity to learn, access and implement the program’s offer into their practice. The program itself will also be regularly updated with the latest developments in digital transformation to guarantee accurate data.

3. Ensure the access to and use of innovative teaching and learning practices by the users
Time and resources will be invested in advertising the teaching method through trainings and social events so that all SMEs have an equal opportunity to benefit from the innovative practices.
