Supporting Specialised Skills Development: Big Data, Internet of Things and Cybersecurity for SMEs (EASME/COSME/2017/007)
The European Commission and EASME took the initiative to analyse and support SMEs’ skills development for Big Data, Internet of Things and Cybersecurity. This initiative is managed by a consortium of Capgemini Invent, Technopolis Group and the European DIGITAL SME Alliance. Together with SMEs and other stakeholders, this initiative will develop a vision, identify support measures, prepare a roadmap and design a monitoring mechanism. The aim is to contribute to strengthening SMEs' workforce adaptability and capacity for the short to medium term.
The objective of the workshop is to discuss the consolidated analysis of the current state-of-play in Europe and to refine the roadmap consisting of supporting measures aimed at fostering skills development for SMEs. The workshop will also share two good practices that provide constructive insights related to the roadmap.
