The objective is to solve Open Innovation business challenges in advanced digitisation raised in the framework of the Smart City Expo 2024.

The Smart City Open Innovation Challenge 2024 is an ACCIÓ initiative aimed at finding innovative solutions to real technological challenges posed by large corporations, with the support of the Enterprise Europe Network. The purpose of DIHBU’s participation is to address one of these advanced digitalisation challenges, linked to Industry 4.0, coordinating value proposals that take advantage of the capabilities of the hub’s technological partners.

DIHBU will take advantage of this platform to seek collaboration opportunities linked to Industry 4.0 for the benefit of its ecosystem, supporting high-value proposals by coordinating its technological members and DIHBU startups. It will also promote its range of services.

To this end, DIHBU will disseminate the selected challenges among its partners and promote strategic meetings with those responsible for each challenge, encouraging the development of innovative solutions adapted to current urban needs.
