They aim to create a “Digital Technopole”, a flexible digital environment capable of re-commissioning production capacities in a very short time, possibly 48 hours, to producing large quantities of medical devices and protective gear, the statement said.
The funding is disbursed under Horizon 2020, the EU’s research and innovation programme, and will be led by SZTAKI deputy head Robert Lovas.
