Worcestershire County Council’s High Growth Programme, Elevate, has launched a dedicated programme to help Worcestershire manufacturers to improve their digital technology and automated manufacturing processes.

Digital technologies present a huge opportunity for all manufacturing businesses in Worcestershire. The specialist support available through the Elevate Digital Technology and Automated Manufacturing (DTAM) programme, will enable businesses to explore how digital technologies and techniques can be applied in day to day manufacturing operations, resulting in improved processes, increased productivity, growth and sustainability.

Councillor Marc Bayliss, cabinet member with responsibility for economy and skills at Worcestershire County Council said, “It’s great to see how the Elevate programme continues to offer support for a range of local business, particularly in the digital tech and automated manufacturing sectors.

“The Digital Technology and Automated Manufacturing programme breakfast information session, will give a good insight into how these businesses can access what their bespoke programme has to offer and make strides in their productivity, technical processes and performances. Or, look to harness the power of digital technology and automated manufacturing. I, for one am very excited to see how our local businesses make best use of the Elevate DTAM programme and look forward to hearing more about it at this information session.”

To find out more about whether this might be something that would benefit your business they are hosting a Digital Breakfast on Tuesday 16 November from 8am to 9am.

The breakfast will be hosted by the delivery partners of the programme on Zoom and past participants of the Elevate Programme will be on hand to discuss the barriers and challenges faced by Manufacturers. They will discuss how the Elevate DTAM programme might be able to help. There are 15 hours of fully funded support up for grabs as well as the opportunity to apply for grants up to £15000 on completion of the programme.
