As coordinators of the Intelligent Connectivity Node of the DIH4CAT, i2CAT offers the possibility to SMEs and the public sector to work with and test all those technologies that allow people, devices, buildings, machines, etc. to connect to the network and among themselves in order to intelligently exchange, process, and analyse data. The adoption of intelligent connectivity technologies allows these connections to work with minimum latencies and maximum capacity, among many other features which, at the same time, make them more secure and able to respond to more and more sectors, not only at the industry 4.0 level, but also at the health level, in logistics, in agriculture and rural environments, and in smart cities among others. DIH4CAT and DIH support programme i2CAT, as node coordinator, is open to support SMEs and Start-ups in their process of accessing to Advanced Digital Technologies.
