Digikyky - Enhancing a company's digital capabilities in order to increase productivity and competitiveness

Digitally competent companies are agile in their operating models, communicate actively and utilise new technology. The DigiKyky training programme is aimed at getting companies to start thinking digitally and at enhancing their capabilities. By making use of digitalisation, a company can 

• develop management and work organisation models
• improve its ability to utilise technology and innovations in producing and marketing products and services
• increase its productivity and competitiveness
• share its expertise through business networks. 

The training programme is divided into four parts, for each of which there are one or two training days. 

• 1: Understanding digitalisation and utilising it in your company
• 2: Online presence
• 3: Modernising your business
• 4: Industrial Internet 

Following the common training days, realistic implementation plans will be developed in smaller business groups. The project is targeted at all growth-oriented companies, including their personnel and managers, regardless of sector. The project is open to a total of 50 companies from North Savo.
