Survey in the Heilbronn-Franken region. Most midsize companies use established digital technologies, only a few AI. Almost two thirds of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Heilbronn-Franken region have not yet developed a strategy for the digital transformation. More than half of them have no plans to develop such a strategy in the future. This was revealed in a major survey conducted by researchers at the TUM Campus Heilbronn. The biggest obstacles mentioned by the companies in this sector - known as the Mittelstand - were an inadequate digital infrastructure, skills shortages and too much bureaucracy. The region is seen as typical of the German Mittelstand.
