TWI has been supporting an Innovate UK-funded project to help improve innovation and interaction among manufacturing professionals to support the digital transformation of UK supply chains.
The Made Smarter Innovation | Digital Supply Chain Hub is a digital innovation programme that empowers individuals and organisations to work together to make supply chains smarter. Developed by Digital Catapult and funded by the Made Smarter Innovation challenge, the programme is designed to transform UK manufacturing through digitally empowered supply chains that are more efficient, resilient and sustainable.
The launch of a digital platform will form part of the lasting legacy of the Digital Supply Chain Hub. The platform provides access to personalised content, training courses, a digital readiness tool, and provides all members access to a directory of UK manufacturers, suppliers, technology companies, and industry experts through a customised user experience. Aimed at manufacturing professionals as well as those interested or involved in supply chain innovation, this free-to-join hub also enables users connect and message with other members on the site.
About the Hub
This online resource can connect individuals with relevant businesses, people, content and training based upon your interests and needs. You can update these preferences at any time to improve your tailored matches. You can also create a business profile at no cost to showcase your products and services to the community and connect with buyers.
As well as providing a forum for networking and interacting with others on the site, the Hub has been created to help answer your questions, expand your knowledge and find experts in the field of digital supply chains.
The platform includes a range of tools and resources, from strategic and resilience tools to best-practice case studies, and more, with access to free content for all members.
TWI and the Digital Supply Chain Hub
TWI experts have been supporting the growth of the Digital Supply Chain Hub programme by presenting at workshops, attending break-out discussion groups, as well as networking and engaging with our Industrial Members to assist their introduction to the Hub.
The network already includes manufacturing professionals, tech experts, suppliers, buyers, entrepreneurs, and influencers, providing an additional resource for TWI Industrial Members to connect with others in industry.
