Launched in 2019, the L-DIH was commissioned with supporting the digital transformation of Luxembourg’s manufacturing sector. The new designation of the E-DIH title is consequential as it directly implies additional components linked to the operations, structure, and services of the Luxembourg Digital Innovation Hub. The E-DIH network, which includes over 170 E-DIH centres throughout Europe, is part of the Digital Europe Programme, which funds E-DIHs up to 50% of the total budget, with member states or regions contributing the other half. The L-DIH consortium is now being extended to include the Luxembourg House of Cybersecurity, the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST), the University of Luxembourg and the University of Luxembourg Competence Centre. The FEDIL, the Chamber of Commerce and the National Research Fund (FNR) remain strategic partners to L-DIH to further leverage synergies. The L-DIH now adds three additional missions. At the initiative of the Luxembourg Digital Innovation Hub (L-DIH), a joint declaration was signed with four digital innovation hubs in the Greater Region to accelerate the deployment of digital technologies, and strengthen innovation and the technological advancement of businesses, especially SMEs.
