New digital technology is evolving fast, changing our world as we know it. Across the board, strong digital solutions play a key role in bolstering European values and agendas such as democracy, climate resilience, and green transitions.

We support projects that help SMEs, rural areas, and public agencies to accelerate digital innovation. As such, they embody EU policy such as the Green Industrial Plan, the New Industrial Strategy, and the Digital Decade Policy Programme 2030.
