Description
INNDIH AI Connect is the European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH) of the Valencian Region. Coordinated by ITI, a technology centre specialised in ICT, the initiative builds on the work carried out by INNDIH during the 2023–2025 period and opens a new stage with a stronger focus on the adoption of Artificial Intelligence and other advanced digital technologies by companies and public administrations.
The project represents the largest public-private alliance within the regional innovation ecosystem around digitalisation and the introduction of new technologies. It brings together all the technology centres of the Valencian Region, public universities, health research institutes, the main business associations, chambers of commerce, public entities and other key regional stakeholders. This collaboration, which is also financially supported by the regional government (GVA), makes available to participants extensive scientific and technological knowledge, broad experimentation infrastructures, connections with a wide regional, national and international ecosystem, and support to accelerate the adoption of these new technologies.
INNDIH AI Connect builds on the experience gained during the previous stage of INNDIH, in which almost 1,000 services were provided to more than 600 companies, most of them SMEs, and more than €4 million were mobilised. On this basis, the new period reinforces its specialisation in Artificial Intelligence, while continuing to address other key technologies such as big data, cybersecurity, high-performance computing, robotics, IoT and immersive technologies.
The main objective is to help companies and public administrations understand, test and adopt these technologies in a practical, safe way that is aligned with their real needs. To this end, the service offer is structured around four main areas: Test before invest, to test technologies before investing; digital training and skills development; support in accessing funding; and connection with the innovation ecosystem and networking. These services enable organisations to advance in their digital maturity, reduce risks in technology adoption and access specialised capabilities that would otherwise be difficult to incorporate.
INNDIH AI Connect also maintains a clear European vocation. The hub is part of the European EDIH network and strengthens its connection with strategic initiatives such as the Digital Transformation Accelerator, the AI-on-Demand Platform, AI Factories, Testing and Experimentation Facilities and other European spaces aimed at the responsible deployment of Artificial Intelligence.
All in all, INNDIH AI Connect is consolidated as the reference point in the Valencian Region for promoting a more advanced, collaborative and impact-oriented digitalisation, helping Artificial Intelligence and digital technologies become a real driver of competitiveness, innovation and transformation for companies, public administrations and society.
