Strategic and operational challenges of the European Digital Innovation Hubs

The interest in this topic was sparked after a matchmaking session that took place in November 2022 on how to integrate a new EDIH into regional ecosystems. The discussion made clear that the strategic and operational setup of the newly selected EDIHs is bringing similar challenges all over Europe.

Therefore during this online discussion, we will discuss especially the following aspects:

• Positioning of the EDIH in terms of services
• Positioning of the EDIH in terms of ecosystems
• Positioning of the EDIH in terms of policies and strategies

What you can expect

The online discussion will be kick-started with the presentation of cases by: 

• Lidia Betoaea from the Digital Innovation Zone, North-East Regional Development Agency (NE RDA), Romania
• Ákos Szépvölgyi from DigitalTech, Managing Director of CTRIA, Hungary
• Helena Deane and Jose Manuel San Emeterio from Data2Sustain EDIH, Ireland

Afterward, a 45‘ discussion is foreseen to exchange experiences and ask questions. Active participation of the audience is highly welcomed. Participants will have the opportunity to share an image or slide to illustrate their example during the session.
