The second call for applications under the Dig.IT – Digital Transformation programme, organised by the Industrial Development Agency (ARP S.A.), opens on 2 November. A total of PLN 40 million is available and individual companies can receive up to PLN 850,000 in funding.

If you’re considering process automation, AI implementation or the development of IT systems, get in touch with us. Let’s talk about what we can do for your business!

What is the Dig.IT programme?

Dig.IT supports micro, small and medium-sized enterprises operating in the manufacturing industry and production services sector in their digital transformation efforts.

Under the second call, companies can apply for grants ranging from PLN 150,000 to PLN 850,000 covering up to 50% of eligible project costs.

The funding can be used to purchase and implement off-the-shelf digital technologies or to develop and implement bespoke solutions tailored to the company’s needs.

Depending on the project, these may include:

• automation of repetitive processes and tasks,
• artificial intelligence solutions,
• digitalisation of document workflows and information processing,
• system integration and improved data flow,
• tools supporting manufacturing processes and business management.

Applications can be submitted from 2 to 30 November 2026.

Not every digital transformation project needs to start with choosing a particular system or technology. 
Sometimes, it starts with a problem: documents that take too long to process, repetitive manual tasks, data scattered across different systems or a process that becomes difficult to scale as the business grows.

That’s where we believe the real work should begin.

At Blumilk, we design and implement technological solutions tailored to the actual needs of businesses. We combine engineering, software development and research expertise to help companies streamline their processes and make better use of new technologies.

We can help you:

• analyse your company’s needs,
• identify potential areas for digital transformation,
• select the right solution and plan its implementation,
• define the technical scope of your project and prepare the information needed to develop a funding application.

You don’t need a complete technical specification or to know which technology will work best. All you need is an idea of what you’d like to improve. We can work out the rest together.

Examples of areas in which we support our clients

• Process automation and business analytics
  Systems for production monitoring, resource management and real-time data analysis.
• Artificial intelligence and machine learning
  AI solutions supporting failure prediction, energy consumption optimisation, quality analysis and production planning.
• Digital sales and customer communication
  Modern B2B/B2C platforms, ERP and CRM integration, and customer service automation.

On September 24, Collegium Witelona University in Legnica hosted a seminar focused on digital administration, data protection and cybersecurity.

The opening lecture was delivered by PhD Piotr Nadybski, Vice-Rector for Development at Collegium Witelona and CEO of Blumilk. In his presentation, “Where do our data live in the age of AI? Digital sovereignty as a new perspective on data protection,” he raised questions that are becoming increasingly important: Who controls our data? Where are they processed? And how much control do we have over the technologies we increasingly depend on?

In the age of AI, data protection is no longer only about security. It is also about control, technological independence and making informed choices about the infrastructure we rely on.

Digital sovereignty is therefore becoming a key challenge for organizations, public administration and anyone implementing AI-based solutions.

Because the question “Where is our data?” increasingly means: “Who is in control of it?”

Programmer’s Day is celebrated on September 13. It is no coincidence that it falls on this particular date - it is the 256th day of the year, and 256 is, of course, 2⁸ a number programmers know particularly well.

At Blumilk, however, we decided not to focus solely on numbers and code. As every year, Programmer’s Day was above all an opportunity to get together around one table. There were plenty of conversations, lots of laughter and for a moment, the only “problem” to solve was what to order.

Spending time together outside the office gives us a chance to simply enjoy each other’s company - without online meetings, tickets and messages like “can you just take a quick look at this…”.

Programmer’s Day is a good excuse to thank our developers for their knowledge, commitment, ideas and everyday work on solutions that help our clients grow their businesses.

And since 256 = 2⁸, we can only wish all programmers that the number of bugs in their code gets just as close to zero.

Happy Programmer’s Day!

Have you got an idea for a technological innovation in your company? That’s just the beginning. On September 22 in Złotoryja, PhD Piotr Nadybski, CEO & Co-founder of Blumilk, will talk about what happens between an idea and a working system and why technology implementations do not always go as planned.

Technology can streamline processes, reduce repetitive tasks, make employees’ work easier and open up completely new opportunities for a company. It is therefore no surprise that more and more businesses are looking for ways to leverage AI, automation and dedicated software solutions.

The real challenge often starts later.

An idea for a solution is not yet a working system. Between the two, there are numerous decisions to be made concerning user needs, project scope, data, integrations, security, technology and implementation. Along the way, it is also easy to lose sight of the most important question: does the solution actually address the business problem?

This is exactly the journey that PhD Piotr Nadybski will discuss during the next Dolnośląscy Liderzy Biznesu meeting.

Presentation topic:
“From an idea to a working system. How technology should support business and why it doesn’t always do so properly.”

The presentation will look at technology primarily from a business perspective. The goal is not to implement a system simply because a particular technology is available or has become popular. A well-designed solution should address a specific business need and fit the way an organization actually operates.

In practice, this means bringing together several perspectives - business, technology and user experience. Only then can an idea evolve into a solution that genuinely works in everyday operations.

At Blumilk, we work every day on solutions designed to address specific organizational challenges - from process automation and systems supporting employees to solutions powered by artificial intelligence.

That is why the presentation will also offer a practical look at what can go wrong on the way from an idea to implementation and what should be considered before a technology project gets underway.

Because the success of a solution is not determined solely by whether it has been built. What matters just as much is whether it actually works, is used by people and delivers the value the business expected.

The meeting will take place on September 22, at 10:00 AM at Hotel Gold in Złotoryja.

See you in Złotoryja!

Real-world project experience, research and technology development came together at this year’s DepCoS-RELCOMEX conference. The Blumilk team presented two papers exploring how modern technologies can address real challenges in software distribution and industrial processes.

The first paper presented by PhD Piotr Nadybski “Reliable Software Distribution at Scale Using Containerized Delivery and Discrete Scheduling Optimization”, was based on experience gained during the development of a Blumilk project. Piotr Nadybski, Krzysztof Rewak, Karol Zygadło, Kamil Piech, Jacek Sawoszczuk and Ewelina Skrzypacz created an approach combining containerization, automation and scheduling optimization to improve large-scale software distribution. The solution achieved an 83% reduction in deployment times and near-elimination of license violations in a production environment.

This is a great example of how experience gained while solving real business challenges can turn into research, new approaches and knowledge shared with the wider technology community.

The second paper, “Dependable Resource Planning in Smart Breweries through a Digital Twin of Flexible Batch Fermentation Processes”, was presented by Krzysztof Rewak together with Andrzej Rusiecki. The research explores the use of digital twins and optimization methods to support resource planning in brewery fermentation processes.

Both papers were published by Springer in the volume “Dependable Computer Systems: Methods, Models, and Applications”, the proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Dependability of Computer Systems (DepCoS-RELCOMEX), held on 29 June-2 July 2026 in Brunów, Poland.

For Blumilk, it is another step in developing our R&D capabilities and combining software development, AI and optimization with real-world business and industrial challenges.

World Health Expo Miami 2026 is behind us - one of the most important events for the healthcare and digital health industry in the Americas. 
Blumilk's co-founder and CEO, PhD Piotr Nadybski attended the event, presenting his approach to using AI technology and data analysis to support medical and rehabilitation processes. This wasn't a finished product showcase, but rather a demonstration of how we approach solving complex engineering problems.

Because that's what we do every day.

We create software for organizations that face large-scale, complex processes and ambitious challenges. We help transform concepts into working, secure solutions, regardless of the industry.

We return from Miami with new contacts, inspiration and even greater confidence that technologies created in Lower Silesia have the potential to address global challenges. 
Participation in the event took place as part of a trade mission organized by the Marshal's Office of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship as part of the "Going Global 5.0 - Internationalization of Lower Silesian Enterprises" project, which aims to support regional companies in expanding into foreign markets.

Thank you for your trust and the opportunity to be part of this mission!
