Skills 

The ambitions set for the place of techniques in the Digital Compass are that, by 2030, at the very least 80% of all grown ups must have at the very least essential digital capabilities, and that there ought to be 20 million employed ICT professionals in the EU, with greater women’s participation.

In 2021, 54% of men and women aged 16-74 in the EU experienced at least fundamental overall electronic techniques, 26 proportion points (pp) underneath the 2030 focus on set in the Digital Compass. 

Meanwhile, pretty much 9 million individuals in the EU worked as ICT specialists, a small above 11 million down below the 2030 goal established in the Electronic Compass. In spite of a slight enhance above the last decade, ladies accounted for considerably less than a fifth of ICT experts (19.1%) in 2021. 

 

Enterprise

The ambitions for the EU’s electronic transformation of organizations condition that by 2030, three out of 4 EU organizations ought to use cloud computing products and services, significant details and artificial intelligence, and much more than 90% of smaller and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) really should get to at least a primary amount of digital depth.

Methodological notes: 

• The electronic depth of EU companies is measured by the Digital Depth Index (DII). The DII measures the use of different electronic technologies by enterprises. Its rating (-12) is determined by how several of the 12 selected electronic technologies are employed by enterprises. The greater the score, the higher the digital intensity of the company, ranging from incredibly low (-3 systems applied), by means of very low (4-6), large (7-9) to quite substantial (10-12). The primary amount involves the use of at least four technologies and features enterprises with very low, higher and really high DII.
