Danube DNA: Building a Sustainable Network for Digital Transformation in the Danube Region
The Danube DNA project aims to establish an innovative and sustainable network of SMEs training and knowledge transfer centers focused on digital transformation within the Danube region. This network represents the “Danube DNA”—a pioneering nucleus for smart specialization, skills development, cross-sectoral collaboration, and the transformation of SMEs towards Industry 4.0 and Logistics 4.0.
By leveraging advanced technologies and facilitating knowledge transfer, along with inter-regional capacity building, the project supports the implementation of innovative and sustainable pilot actions. These efforts are designed to aid the transformation of SMEs in the region, bringing together stakeholders from various sectors and countries to create a platform for sharing best practices, fostering innovation, and enhancing the region’s competitiveness.
A key focus of the project is on developing the skills and competencies necessary to successfully navigate the challenges of digital transformation. Through these initiatives, the project not only promotes economic growth in the Danube region but also lays the foundation for a sustainable future.
The project began in January 2024 and will run until June 2026. For more information about the Danube DNA project, please visit the official project website.
