The European Commission’s Communication on the 2030 Digital Compass outlines the EU’s vision and goals for digital transformation by 2030. It covers four main topics: digital skills, digital infrastructures, digital transformation of businesses, and digitalization of public services. These points aim to ensure that Europe becomes digitally sovereign in an interconnected world and that digital solutions benefit citizens and businesses. In addition, the Communication discusses goals of the strategy according to these four topics. 

The document also offers several actions to achieve strategy’s objectives, including establishing a framework of digital rights and principles to guide the digital transformation, promoting large-scale projects that pool resources from the EU, Member States, and the private sector to achieve critical mass and impact, and implementing a robust governance framework to monitor progress, ensure accountability, and facilitate cooperation among Member States.

The communication sets a clear path for Europe’s digital transformation, aiming to enhance digital sovereignty, foster innovation, and ensure that digital technologies benefit all citizens and businesses.
