Abstract

Improving Cloud Computing for Small and Medium Enterprises

(startupticker.ch, July 26, 2013)

CloudBroker, a spin-off company of the ETH Zürich, is participating in CloudSME – a project aimed at developing cloud-based solutions that will enable small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the European manufacturing and engineering industries to take up simulation technologies. These technologies would significantly improve efficiency and reduce costs, but are typically off limits to SMEs because of high licensing costs and lack of technical expertise. CloudSME aims to develop a platform that will change the way these SMEs use simulations and provide new business opportunities to SMEs, as well as to the providers of simulation software and cloud services. The project has 16 partners and will receive 4.5 million Euros from the European Commission.
