Dr Andrzej Soldaty, Director of the Industry 4.0 Centre of the Silesian University of Technology took part in the debate entitled: “Where to get fuel for development? Financing and programs supporting innovation in Polish industry.”
The discussion was also attended by experts from the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development and the Industrial Development Agency. The speakers explained how to obtain financing, what programs are dedicated to companies willing to implement innovations, as well as how to build substantive competences, without which we cannot talk about effective implementations.
Opening the panel, Dr Soldaty shared his point of view on how companies should approach digital transformation before they even start applying for funding, so that the implementation of innovations brings real benefits and high returns. The panel met with great recognition of the participants and provoked further, behind-the-scenes discussions.
