TDIH

The European Digital Innovation Hub in Transilvania (TEDIHT) aims to address industry and societal challenges through innovation driven by digital technologies. We use cutting edge technologies like AI, HPC and Big Data to enable digital transformation processes, provide green/sustainable solutions that improve productivity, competitiveness, growth, and wellbeing at regional, national, EU, and international levels. 

TEDIHT's general objective is to provide a complete set of digital transformation and innovation services for (1) SMEs and (2) public sector organisations (PSOs) conducting non-economic activities from the NW region of Romania and, through the EDIH network, at EU level.
