The question that concerns us all: What will the “new normal” be like? One thing is for sure in the tool industry, the crisis has already started before Corona. Is digitalization possibly an opportunity to leave the crisis stronger and be prepared for the “new normal”? But how do ailing companies prepare for a digitalization project? In our webinar series ” Digitalization of the Tool Industry” we dealt in the second sequence with project financing and informed our participants about financing options.

What does a digitalization project actually mean?

A digitalization project can mean the digitalization of products and services on the one hand, but also the digitalization of business processes or the business model on the other hand. How a project looks like in detail is usually very different and cannot be generalized because there are differences from case to case.

What funding opportunities are there?

During the webinar, we were supported by Dr. Rieck, who is responsible for the federal government’s “Innovation and Research Funding Advisory Service”. She introduced us to different types of funding opportunities, which we are happy to share with you.
