ProgrammesThe session, organised by CONNECT University (European Commission, DG CONNECT) will focus on some proposals for a EU digital strategy that strengthens its digital strategic autonomy, exploring its possible impacts in the EU’s Digital Decade Policy Programme.
Against a backdrop of rising geopolitical tensions and growing dependencies on foreign tech actors, the question of digital sovereignty has become increasingly urgent. Recent initiatives reflect a renewed ambition to strengthen Europe’s autonomy in strategic digital sectors, such as AI, semiconductors, cloud, and digital infrastructure. The session aims to exploresome of the proposals to ensure the EU works towards a digital strategy that strengthens its own digital strategic autonomy and their relevance to the EU’s Digital Decade Policy Programme.
This session is part of the broader Digital Decade Community activities and aims to foster a discussion around European digital sovereignty, ahead of the 2025 edition of the State of the Digital Decade Report.

The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022, aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.
The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
