DigitaliseSME wants to help European SMEs to digitalise and stay competitive in a world that relies more and more on new technologies.

To achieve its goal, the project relies on digital experts, or “Digital Enablers”, who can register in a database and can then be matched with a company to support it for a month, with two weeks of desk work and a visit on its premises of two weeks, when they will help it set up a digitalisation project responding to its needs.

As we understand that such expertise and the time needed to implement projects are very valuable, the project will provide every “Digital Enabler” providing two weeks of desk work and going abroad for two weeks with a lump sum payment of 8.000€. Moreover, the companies they will visit will take care of their accommodation and their meals, with minimum standards being guaranteed by the project’s conditions for participation.

If you are a digital expert and the idea sounds intriguing, keep in mind there are also many more benefits in joining DigitaliseSME:
