This is the question with which the Mittelstand 4.0-Kompetenzzentrum Berlin, a funding initiative of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy has started for a period of three years. The Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society (HIIG) is part of the project consortium in the Berlin-Brandenburg region and enables practical knowledge transfer from start-ups to medium-sized companies.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #222222;\">&#8220;Traditionelle Unternehmen und digitale Innovationen m\u00fcssen nicht im Gegensatz zueinander stehen&#8221;, so Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Schildhauer, Direktor des HIIG und Projektleiter. &#8220;Wir kennen viele Best-Practice Beispiele von Startups, die mithilfe digitaler Werkzeuge und digital unterst\u00fctzter Gesch\u00e4ftsprozesse messbare Erfolge erzielen k\u00f6nnen.&#8221;<br \/>\nZiel des Projektes sei es, kleine und mittlere Unternehmen (KMU) auf dem Weg zur digitalen Transformation zu unterst\u00fctzen, sie zu motivieren, sich mit dem wirtschaftlichen Potenzial digitaler Gesch\u00e4ftsprozesse auseinanderzusetzen und sie fachlich zu begleiten. F\u00fcr Themen wie Digitales Marketing, Gesch\u00e4ftsmodelle, Personal und Wertsch\u00f6pfungsprozesse 4.0, erhalten KMU branchen\u00fcbergreifend bedarfsgerechte Anlaufstellen und fachliche Begleitung.<\/p>\n<p>Das Kompetenzzentrum wird vom Bundesverband mittelst\u00e4ndische Wirtschaft (BVMW) gef\u00fchrt. Neben dem BVMW und dem HIIG geh\u00f6ren auch das Hasso-Plattner-Institut f\u00fcr Softwaresystemtechnik, die Technische Hochschule Brandenburg, die Universit\u00e4t Potsdam sowie die Lernfabrik Neue Technologien Berlin zum Projektkonsortium.<\/p>\n<p>Mario Ohoven, Pr\u00e4sident des Bundesverbands mittelst\u00e4ndische Wirtschaft, l\u00e4dt alle kleinen und mittleren Unternehmen dazu ein, das Angebot aktiv zu nutzen: \u201eF\u00fcr Unternehmen, die noch keine Schritte zur Digitalisierung gewagt haben sowie f\u00fcr digitale Startups bis hin zu vollvernetzten produzierenden Unternehmen bietet das Zentrum verschiedenste Ankn\u00fcpfungspunkte&#8221;. In Informationsveranstaltungen f\u00fcr Einsteiger, Workshops und Trainings f\u00fcr Fortgeschrittene oder konkreten von Experten begleiteten Umsetzungsprojekten werden digitale Prozessl\u00f6sungen zielgruppengerecht f\u00fcr KMU zusammen erarbeitet.<\/p>\n<p>\u00dcber das Alexander von Humboldt Institut f\u00fcr Internet und Gesellschaft (HIIG):<br \/>\nDas HIIG erforscht die dynamische Beziehung von Internet und Gesellschaft aus verschiedenen disziplin\u00e4ren und interdisziplin\u00e4ren Perspektiven und die zunehmende Verflechtung digitaler Infrastrukturen mit dem allt\u00e4glichen Leben. Das Institut versteht sich als Plattform f\u00fcr Forscher im Bereich Internet und Gesellschaft und f\u00f6rdert die kooperative Entwicklung von Projekten, Anwendungen und Forschungsnetzwerken. Gr\u00fcndungsgesellschafter des HIIG sind die Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin, die Universit\u00e4t der K\u00fcnste Berlin und das Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin f\u00fcr Sozialforschung, erg\u00e4nzt durch den integrierten Kooperationspartner Hans-Bredow-Institut f\u00fcr Medienforschung in Hamburg.<\/p>\n<div class=\"shariff shariff-align-flex-start shariff-widget-align-flex-start\"><ul class=\"shariff-buttons theme-round orientation-horizontal buttonsize-medium\"><li class=\"shariff-button linkedin shariff-nocustomcolor\" style=\"background-color:#1488bf\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/sharing\/share-offsite\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hiig.de%2Fen%2Fdie-vierte-industrielle-revolution-wie-setzt-der-mittelstand-die-digitalen-umwaelzungen-um%2F\" title=\"Share on LinkedIn\" aria-label=\"Share on LinkedIn\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"shariff-link\" style=\"; background-color:#0077b5; color:#fff\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"shariff-icon\" style=\"\"><svg width=\"32px\" height=\"20px\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 27 32\"><path fill=\"#0077b5\" d=\"M6.2 11.2v17.7h-5.9v-17.7h5.9zM6.6 5.7q0 1.3-0.9 2.2t-2.4 0.9h0q-1.5 0-2.4-0.9t-0.9-2.2 0.9-2.2 2.4-0.9 2.4 0.9 0.9 2.2zM27.4 18.7v10.1h-5.9v-9.5q0-1.9-0.7-2.9t-2.3-1.1q-1.1 0-1.9 0.6t-1.2 1.5q-0.2 0.5-0.2 1.4v9.9h-5.9q0-7.1 0-11.6t0-5.3l0-0.9h5.9v2.6h0q0.4-0.6 0.7-1t1-0.9 1.6-0.8 2-0.3q3 0 4.9 2t1.9 6z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"shariff-button bluesky shariff-nocustomcolor\" style=\"background-color:#84c4ff\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/intent\/compose?text=The%20fourth%20industrial%20revolution%3A%20How%20are%20middle%20class%20companies%20implementing%20digital%20transformation%3F https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hiig.de%2Fen%2Fdie-vierte-industrielle-revolution-wie-setzt-der-mittelstand-die-digitalen-umwaelzungen-um%2F  via @hiigberlin.bsky.social\" title=\"Share on Bluesky\" aria-label=\"Share on Bluesky\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"shariff-link\" style=\"; background-color:#0085ff; color:#fff\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"shariff-icon\" style=\"\"><svg width=\"20\" height=\"20\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 20 20\"><path class=\"st0\" d=\"M4.89,3.12c2.07,1.55,4.3,4.71,5.11,6.4.82-1.69,3.04-4.84,5.11-6.4,1.49-1.12,3.91-1.99,3.91.77,0,.55-.32,4.63-.5,5.3-.64,2.3-2.99,2.89-5.08,2.54,3.65.62,4.58,2.68,2.57,4.74-3.81,3.91-5.48-.98-5.9-2.23-.08-.23-.11-.34-.12-.25,0-.09-.04.02-.12.25-.43,1.25-2.09,6.14-5.9,2.23-2.01-2.06-1.08-4.12,2.57-4.74-2.09.36-4.44-.23-5.08-2.54-.19-.66-.5-4.74-.5-5.3,0-2.76,2.42-1.89,3.91-.77h0Z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"shariff-button mailto shariff-nocustomcolor\" style=\"background-color:#a8a8a8\"><a href=\"mailto:?body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hiig.de%2Fen%2Fdie-vierte-industrielle-revolution-wie-setzt-der-mittelstand-die-digitalen-umwaelzungen-um%2F&subject=The%20fourth%20industrial%20revolution%3A%20How%20are%20middle%20class%20companies%20implementing%20digital%20transformation%3F\" title=\"Send by email\" aria-label=\"Send by email\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"shariff-link\" style=\"; background-color:#999; color:#fff\"><span class=\"shariff-icon\" style=\"\"><svg width=\"32px\" height=\"20px\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 32 32\"><path fill=\"#999\" d=\"M32 12.7v14.2q0 1.2-0.8 2t-2 0.9h-26.3q-1.2 0-2-0.9t-0.8-2v-14.2q0.8 0.9 1.8 1.6 6.5 4.4 8.9 6.1 1 0.8 1.6 1.2t1.7 0.9 2 0.4h0.1q0.9 0 2-0.4t1.7-0.9 1.6-1.2q3-2.2 8.9-6.1 1-0.7 1.8-1.6zM32 7.4q0 1.4-0.9 2.7t-2.2 2.2q-6.7 4.7-8.4 5.8-0.2 0.1-0.7 0.5t-1 0.7-0.9 0.6-1.1 0.5-0.9 0.2h-0.1q-0.4 0-0.9-0.2t-1.1-0.5-0.9-0.6-1-0.7-0.7-0.5q-1.6-1.1-4.7-3.2t-3.6-2.6q-1.1-0.7-2.1-2t-1-2.5q0-1.4 0.7-2.3t2.1-0.9h26.3q1.2 0 2 0.8t0.9 2z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How can medium-sized businesses meet the challenges of digitalisation?
