ICT - Actions to connect digital skills and entrepreneurship

The Challenge

The ICT sector represents 4.8% of the European economy. It generates 25% of total business expenditure in Research and Development (R&D), and investments in ICT account for 50% of all European productivity growth. As a result, global market has begun to change as it is now based on people with excellent knowledge of digital skills and practices. Unfortunately, in the European area, this development has not yet reached the desired level.

iED connects the ICT sector with entrepreneurship

Two of the key competencies for lifelong learning set by the European Parliament are digital competence and a sense of initiative and entrepreneurship. The ICT invades and transforms, bit by bit, all aspects of all societies and economies and changes the way people live and behave. In iED we try to connect the ICT sector with entrepreneurship. Below you can see some indicative European projects that we are being implemented and affect the ICT sector.

iED and its vision for the ICT sector

iED is always interested in developing and participating in cutting-edge research projects which will lead to the development of innovative products and services. For this reason, we have recruited talented digital experts whose expertise along with the community of policymakers, researchers, and startuppers will contribute to the development of entrepreneurship in the field of ICT.

We’d be glad to discuss with you about ventures and synergies in the ICT sector.
