The aim of the event is to reinforce the capacity of Digital Innovation Hubs (DIHs) to support European companies in their digital transformation. SMEs, start-ups, research and technology organisations, DIHs and policy-makers from all around Europe are invited to participate.

The 2018 edition of the Digital Innovation Hubs annual event will take place in Warsaw, co-organised this year by the European Commission, the Department of Innovation at the Polish Ministry of Entrepreneurship and Technology, and the EU-funded initiative I4MS.

Mariya Gabriel, European Commissioner for Digital Economy and Society, and Jadwiga Emilewicz, Minister of entrepreneurship and technology Poland, will open the event. 

The aim is to bring together the different actors involved in the digital transformation of European industry, namely companies, research and technology organisations, Digital Innovation Hubs, policy makers and EU representatives.

Digital Innovation Hubs (DIHs) are at the core of the Digitising European Industry initiative. They are already helping companies -especially SMEs- all across Europe to digitalise their products, processes and services through innovative technologies.

The 2018 DIH Annual Event aims to reinforce the capacity of DIHs so that they can further support European companies in their digital transformation. The event also takes place in the context of the preparation for the proposed Digital Europe Programme, where Digital Innovation Hubs will play a key role.
