VOKA Digihub

In the VOKA DigiHub you can ask all your questions about digitisation and we build a bridge between the business and research world.

Voka has taken the initiative, in cooperation with EFRO, to establish a digital hub in every Flemish province. These hubs are the regional Voka offices where you, as an entrepreneur, can go with all your questions about digitisation and in particular about new data-driven digital technologies. Each regional DigiHub has its own ecosystem of knowledge institutions. As a strategic research centre for the manufacturing industry, Flanders Make is obviously a participating party. We make our expertise available in each region. 

In concrete terms, an SME could visit a digital experimentation room to optimise its stock management using sensor technology. That application can be submitted to the lab and tested. In addition to making use of the available infrastructure, methods and technical expertise of the knowledge partners, attention will also be paid to the place that this digitisation will occupy within the business model.

As a company, you can go to VOKA DigiHubs with these kinds of questions and challenges.

ERDF initiative

The European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) is one of the five structural and investment funds to strengthen economic, social and territorial cooperation in the European Union. With this call, the ERDF programme is responding to the need to make the wealth of knowledge and expertise present in our Flemish knowledge institutions more accessible and applicable to SMEs. For that reason, it is an explicit policy objective to allow as many SMEs as possible to take steps forward in digitisation via a low-threshold approach.
