Smart Manufacturing Data Hub (SMDH), led by Ulster University, aims to support 10,000 UK manufacturing SMEs to uptake, learn, and implement digital transformation technology in their factories through a range of support initiatives and funding measures. The programme is supported by £50 million of funding under the Made Smarter Initiative from Innovate UK.

Support for SMEs will include education and expert advice on digitalisation pathways, implementation of data driven technology, and funding to help manufacturing SMEs reach their digital transformation goals.

SMDH offers unique opportunities for SMEs to access data expertise that will aim to save SMEs time and money, predict breakdowns, and protect the environment, among other benefits.
