Europe’s Digital Decade: How to reach a skilled workforce in 2030?

Dear Madam, Dear Sir,

We would kindly invite you to our panel discussion jointly hosted by Numeum and the German Economic Institute (IW) on 13 June 2023 from 12h00 to 13h15 followed by a light lunch.

The event will take place at the Press Club – Rue Froissart 95, 1000 Brussels.

In the beginning of this year, the European Commission launched the first cycle of the Digital Decade policy programme. The Digital Decade policy programme will guide Europe’s digital transformation with concrete targets and objectives for 2030 in four key areas: skills, infrastructure, business and government. Each year, the Commission will publish a state of the Digital Decade report to measure and assess the progress of the EU level trajectories and the Digital Decade targets.

At the same time, 2023 marks the year of skills. Digital and data skills are particularly important for a successful digital transformation. Therefore, during this event, we focus on the path to a skilled workforce by 2030 that enables the European economy to successfully transform and remain innovative and competitive.

The Brussels Office of the German Economic Institute (IW) and the French tech organisation Numeum are looking forward to welcoming you to their event.
