Welcome to the DEN4DEK Thematic Network Website

DEN4DEK stands for Digital Ecosystems Network of regions for (4) DissEmination and Knowledge Deployment.

DEN4DEK is a Thematic Network that aims to share experiences and disseminate all the necessary knowledge that allows regions to plan an effective deployment of Digital Ecosystems at all levels (economic, social, technical and political) in order to produce real impacts in the economic activities of European regions through the improvement of SMEs business environments.

Digital Ecosystems are emerging as a novel approach for the catalysis of sustainable regional development driven by SMEs.

For more information on Digital Ecosystems, please consult the Digital Ecosystems website by the European Commission.

DEN4DEK is the first step in a self-reinforcing community building process that will culminate in the construction of an Interest Group surrounding the Digital Ecosystems approach for sustainable development.
