What EDIH is
Pomeranian Digital Innovation Hub.
European Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIH) support small and medium-sized companies in digital transformation, funding services up to 100%. In Pomerania the programme operates as the Pomeranian Digital Innovation Hub (PDIH); the consortium leader is Pomorska Specjalna Strefa Ekonomiczna / Gdańsk Science and Technology Park.
PDIH works as a one-stop-shop: from a digitalization-level audit and training, through demonstrations of digital solutions and test deployments, to support in finding financing and preparing legal solutions. The project plans more than 1600 services for 560 entities, provided as de minimis aid.
Within the consortium, infoShare Academy is responsible for the Skills & Training area — IT training for teams.
The specialization of the Pomeranian EDIH — with particular attention to the needs of the maritime sector.
What that means in practice
- The training is run by infoShare Academy practitioner trainers — exactly as in our commercial programmes.
- The company does not pay for the training; PDIH handles the programme formalities and we help you through them.
- Eligibility depends on SME status and the available de minimis aid limit.
- An application starts with a free conversation — we check the needs and pick the topic.

FAQ
FAQ — EDIH
Frequently asked questions about the European Digital Innovation Hub programme.
What is an EDIH (European Digital Innovation Hub)?
+
An EDIH is a network of support centres funded from European resources, whose purpose is to help companies (especially SMEs) and the public sector with digital transformation — technology testing, training, access to the innovation ecosystem and support in securing funding. In Pomerania the programme operates as the Pomeranian Digital Innovation Hub (PDIH); infoShare Academy is a consortium partner and delivers training within it.
Is EDIH training really free of charge?
+
Yes. For eligible companies, PDIH services are funded up to 100% from European resources and provided as de minimis aid — the company does not bear the cost of the training.
Which companies qualify?
+
PDIH services are addressed to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and provided as de minimis aid. Final eligibility is confirmed by PDIH; we check it preliminarily during the first, free conversation.
What does the application process look like?
+
1) An initial conversation and needs diagnosis (free of charge). 2) Verification of the company's eligibility. 3) Choice of a training programme from the list of services delivered by infoShare Academy within PDIH. 4) Formalities on the PDIH side and delivery of the training on the agreed date.
Which trainings does infoShare Academy deliver within PDIH?
+
Five services: AI tools for business and process automation; AI tools and prompt engineering for developers; DevOps in practice; Data analysis with Python; Power BI + DAX in practice. The remaining PDIH services (including test before invest, solution demonstrations and legal support) are delivered by other consortium partners.
Until when does the programme run?
+
The completion date of the PDIH project is 30 September 2026. In total the project plans more than 1600 services for 560 entities, so it is worth applying as early as possible — the number of places in each support track is limited.
Can I combine EDIH with other funding?
+
Yes, though not for the same service. If EDIH does not cover the training you are interested in, we will check other routes — BUR (up to 80% for SMEs) and national programmes. Details are on our training funding page.
