Project details
Short description
Digital transformation requires both an understanding of the technologies that drive the current change and the ability to implement the transformation organizationally. This is a current challenge that many companies are facing. Besides, many organizations find it difficult to identify the relevant market opportunities, to develop promising digital transformation measures and to subsequently implement these measures. In this project, the "Weiterbildungszentrum Digitalisierung & Transformation" (WDT), funded by the Fraunhofer-Academy, provides a crucial set of elements for mastering digital change. WDT builds on the regional structures of LZE to efficiently establish an adequate further education offer. In order to address different perspectives on the topic simultaneously, a consortium of four specialists from the respective fields was formed: Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg, Fraunhofer IIS, Fraunhofer IISB and LZE.
