It is proposed in accordance with the Resolution to create working structures - 4.0 centres on the basis of infrastructure of higher education institutions, research institutions, etc., which with state support will carry out further examination of innovative projects and their acceleration and register them in parallel (enter the network) as digital hubs (DIH) on the European Smart Specialization Platform. This combination will expand the Centres’ capacity to attract European grants for Ukrainian SMEs to implement technologies related to Industry 4.0 and will enable Ukrainian innovation specialists to gain experience and support from representatives of developed European digital hubs.
