On October 22, 2025, we participated in the Smart Business Festival at NEXT ZONE in Prague (Smíchovská střední průmyslová škola a gymnázium) and presented ARR, EDIH Northeast, and our services for companies and public organisations. As part of presentations and panel discussions focused on the security, resilience, and sustainability of Czech business, and at the EDIH NEB stand, we shared our case studies and opportunities for cooperation in the “Test before invest” mode, as well as our range of educational events.
What we presented
- How EDIH NEB helps with technology verification before investment, digital maturity diagnostics, expert consulting, and implementation in companies and public organisations.
- Practical examples of the use of AI and robotics in social and educational services and in companies through EDIH NEB.
- Workshops and consultations for SMEs and public institutions, including networking with partners and financing.



Why makes it sense
This meeting in Prague brought together representatives of all Czech EDIHs, TEFs, and AI Factories, enabling them to share current trends and projects across the digital innovation ecosystem. We will use the contacts we have established for new pilots and to expand services in our region and beyond.
