This project focuses on the digitization and robotization of the production processes of SMEs in the JTF region Groningen-Emmen. To achieve this, the province of Groningen and the municipality of Emmen, in close coordination with its regional stakeholders, have developed a subsidy scheme. SME entrepreneurs can apply for a subsidy if they want to digitize and robotize production processes. Subsidy is possible for: - having a strategic digitisation or robotisation advice drawn up; - the purchase and implementation of hardware or software that digitizes or robotizes the production process of a company. This ensures a more competitive SME that can produce greener and cleaner, emit less CO2 and produce more efficiently. It also improves working conditions (cleaner and less demanding work) and, in the current time of staff scarcity, leads to a more efficient use of staff.
