Description
Greek SMEs are lagging behind in terms of Industry 4.0 technologies adoption. The current proposal is an effort to raise awareness in innovative technologies that can be adopted from Greek SMEs and the upskilling of the personnel.
The project consists in the training in Industry 4.0 technologies for the personnel of I4byDesign by the Donor Partner. The topics include Additive Manufacturing and Circular Economy, Robotics and Digitalization Tools and Frameworks. The partner will organise a study visit in Norway, where the promoter will meet with Norwegian companies, be informed in new technologies and strategies. The promoter will also collect data and analyse the Greek market, in order to identify shortages in terms of technologies, strategies, environmental awareness and female entrepreneurship. I4byDesign will organize 4 targeted workshop which will raise awareness, inform Greek SMEs on new technologies and business strategies, bring companies together and give opportunities for enhanced collaboration with Norwegian partners.
The project will lead to the transfer of knowledge and expertise from the Norwegian Partner to I4byDesign; this will help the promoter adopt the latest technologies and methodologies. As a result, the project will increase the promoter''s competitiveness and establish it as a key player in Industry 4.0 technologies. The training will contribute to upskilling of personnel and increase Greek SMEs'' efficiency and competitiveness. The project will raise awareness and promote female entrepreneurship, as well as enhance business collaboration between Greek and Norwegian enterprises.
The partner NTNU will provide competence to the promoter, which brings value to the project objectives and the successful implementation of the project.
