Securing Digital Sovereignty in the Digital Decade: Strategies for Europe's Tech Independence

The session will focus on some proposals for a EU digital strategy that strengthens its digital strategic autonomy, exploring its possible impacts in the EU’s Digital Decade Policy Programme.

As part of the broader set of webinars on the Digital Decade, this session aims to foster a discussion around European digital sovereignty ahead of the 2025 edition of the State of the Digital Decade Report by asking:  

• What are some of the proposals to ensure the EU works towards a digital strategy that strengthens its own digital strategic autonomy?
• How is this relevant to the EU’s Digital Decade Policy Programme? 

Through expert contributions, the session will explore:  

• The strategic implications of Europe's growing digital dependencies;
• Policy proposals to boost digital resilience, economic security and strategic autonomy;
• How to better align the Digital Decade with Europe’s broader geopolitical, industrial and security priorities.
