All DIGITALIS partners are already very well connected in the Flemish and the European innovation ecosystems and we aim to be a pro-active partner in the network of European Digital Innovation Hubs. No organisation (or consortium) can answer all the questions and needs of the companies by itself. By collaborating with other regional innovation actors in Flanders (Spearhead Clusters, RTOs, Private Equity organisations, Universities, Sector Federations…) DIGITALIS can guarantee that the major roadblocks for innovation in digital technologies within manufacturing SMEs are removed and that the majority of needs from the companies can be fulfilled. The following partners contribute actively to the development of the DIGITALIS collaboration and have their experts participating in the support activities of the DIGITALIS project:
