International success of Łukasiewicz – PIAP team

The EDIH Mazovia Consortium led by  Łukasiewicz – PIAP has been awarded the status of European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH) by the European Commission.       

In March 2022 as many as 25 consortia from Poland, aspiring to become European Digital Innovation Hubs, submitted applications to the EU’s Initial Network of European Digital Innovation Hubs competition under the Digital Europe programme. In this group was the EDIH Mazovia consortium, led by the Łukasiewicz Research Network – Industrial Research Institute of Automation and Measurements PIAP. Earlier, preselection from 40 applications was made by the Ministry of Economic Development, Labour and Technology.

Łukasiewicz – PIAP, which competed against nearly 300 candidates from all over Europe, has been awarded European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH) status as one of 18 hubs located in Poland funded by the EU. Thanks to the success of Łukasiewicz – PIAP, the institute’s clients will be able to take advantage of a number of European-funded technological and business services of our partners, which include three institutes that are part of the Łukasiewicz Research Network (Institute of Microelectronics and Photonics, the Tele and Radio Research Institute and the Institute for Sustainable Technologies), in addition to the Warsaw University of Technology, the University of Warsaw, the Industrial Development Agency, IDEAS NCBR, FundingBox and the Polish Chamber of Commerce for High Technology. The new hubs should become operational later this year.
