Friends of Europe reaction to EU digital compass

Friends of Europe – a Brussels-based, pro-EU think tank – published a reaction to the Commission’s communication. They argue an overall lack of ambition in the strategy, which appears to be vague and unattainable in terms of target reaching. In particular, the 20% microprocessor manufacturing target is described as unrealistic. They advocate for a change of approach where the Commission’s compass can be developed into an actual roadmap for the digital decade.
