Discover the Acelera pyme Platform and how it helps SMEs in their digital transformation processes.

Nowadays, digitalisation is redefining all areas of our daily lives and our businesses, which are in a continuous process of reinvention to be able to keep competing in an increasingly digital market.

This need for digitalisation of companies has boosted the creation of SMEs’ support programmes, as they represent a large part of the Spanish business fabric. In this context, Acelera pyme is an initiative that is included in the Digitalisation of SMEs Plan 2021-2025 and shows the government's commitment in promoting the digitalisation of the business fabric and the Spanish economy, encouraging entrepreneurship and boosting companies’ competitiveness at a national and international level.

The initiative has two lines of action - the network of Acelera pyme Offices and the Acelera pyme Platform - which work towards a common goal: to support SMEs like yours in the digital transformation process. 

In this post we focus on the Acelera pyme Platform to introduce you all the resources and benefits it offers.

What can you find on the Acelera pyme Platform?

• Self-knowledge

A fundamental section of the Platform is composed of the self-testing tools. These tests are available so that you can understand the current situation of your SME in terms of digital transformation, discover the areas that are already digitalised and identify those that you need to boost. In this section, you will find two tests, one express and one advanced, which analyse the level of digital maturity of your SME. You will obtain a study of your business situation in each area of digitalisation and recommendations so that you can start or strengthen this process of change.

It also includes a cybersecurity test, helping you to find out whether you have the plans and tools to ensure that your company is properly protected, and to discover those areas that need to be strengthened. This information will allow you to anticipate potential risks that may arise in the future.
