Project Summary

The ADMA TranS4MErs will accelerate factories to become Factories of the Future embracing the ecological, digital, and societal challenges. The project is best positioned to support ambitious SMEs on their transformation journey, designed to ensure that Europe embraces the transformation of the economy and society and brings its benefits to ALL citizens and businesses. ADMA TranS4MErs will build and deliver assistance with digital competencies (underpinned by technology: high performance computing, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity) and
training in advanced skills in digital technologies in SMEs, contributing to Europe’s strategic autonomy, and accelerating deployment and best use in areas of public interest and the private sector. The project will operationalise the Smart Specialisation Strategy priority areas of Manufacturing (Industry4.0) in all EU-27 member states and where industry overlaps with ICT, energy, health, and Key Digital Technologies considering the ethical, data, security, and equality challenges.


Pragma will bring together her innovation cluster to realise the project ambitions to support advanced manufacturing assistance and training to SMEs. This will include dedicated effort in the scan of the SMEs for advanced manufacturing maturity and in the design and delivery of the ADMA TranS4MErs innovation toolkit.
