The Digital Compass

The digital compass translates the EU’s digital ambitions for the next decade into clear, concrete targets. Key policy areas to ensure these targets are reached include cloud computing, artificial intelligence, digital identities, data, and connectivity. The digital compass sets out objectives to achieve the EU’s vision for the digital future and for that it uses the four points of the compass to identify the main goals to reach over the next decade:

  1. a digitally skilled population and highly skilled digital professionals
  2. secure and substantial digital infrastructures
  3. digital transformation of businesses
  4. digitisation of public sectors

The Digital Europe Programme (DIGITAL)

To ensure funding for targets set in the digital compass, financial instrument – the Digital Europe Programme – has been established. DIGITAL will provide strategic funding to support projects in five crucial areas: supercomputing, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, advanced digital skills, and ensuring a wide use of digital technologies across the economy and society. It has a planned overall budget of €7.5 billion.

DIGITAL will complement other EU programmes, such as the Horizon Europe programme for research and innovation and the Connecting Europe Facility for digital infrastructure.
