These projects promote coordinated investments among the EU, Member States and private stakeholders enabling digital infrastructure projects that a Member State alone could not deploy on its own. They reinforce the Union’s technology excellence and industrial competitiveness in critical technologies, support an interconnected, interoperable and secure Digital Single Market and address strategic vulnerabilities and dependencies of the Union along the digital supply chain.
