Description

Our research showed that British SME consider Grid as a valuable instrument for achieving their business objectives. The TME report includes a number of business cases which demonstrate how Grid could help small companies to do new things and improve performance. However, opportunities for SME to benefit from Grid technologies are limited by the following factors: • Lack of infrastructure • Lack of skills • Cost of ownership The main objective of this project is to find out how EGEE and other scientific grid projects could help SME to overcome the abovementioned difficulties and help companies to adopt Grid.
