DANTE is a cutting-edge project insofar as it focuses on supporting the digital transformation of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), Organizations in the public sector, and professionals that operate in the domains of healthy and active ageing, ambient assisted living (AAL), and smart environments. The aim is to ensure that these players can respond to the current digital challenges. To foster the digital transformation of the European Economy the Digital Transformation Accelerator (DTA) will support effectively and efficiently the network of Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIHs).
