This report analyses four development scenarios for Digital Europe in 2030.

The purpose is to measure whether Europe can leverage its power in certain verticals that are poised to be radically altered by digital tech and to analyse its capacity to hold its own against, chiefly Chinese and American, players that dominate most digital segments.

The report draws on forward-looking analysis work from four workshops conducted with the higher education establishment, CNAM, and some dozen participating companies (Accenture, Eiffage, Exfo, France Télévisions, Orange, TDF, Valeo, Vinci, etc.) and institutions (Arcep, CDC, Cigref, DGE).
