Solving the issue of digitalization in german SMEs.

The problems:

  1. Inadequate online presence: Many SMEs lack a strong online presence, making it difficult for them to reach potential customers and engage with their audience.
  2. Limited digital skills: Some SMEs may struggle with a lack of technical expertise and digital skills, making it challenging for them to effectively implement digital solutions.
  3. Resistance to change: Some SMEs may be resistant to change, which can make it difficult for them to embrace new technologies and digital solutions.
  4. Limited resources: SMEs may have limited resources, such as time, money, and staff, which can hinder their ability to invest in digital solutions and stay competitive.
  5. Difficulty in adapting to rapidly changing technology: The pace of technological change can be difficult for SMEs to keep up with, leading to a lag in digital adoption.
  6. Lack of understanding of the potential benefits of digitalization: Some SMEs may not fully understand the potential benefits of digitalization, making it difficult for them to make informed decisions about technology investments.
