Global Digitalisation
EXPONENTIAL GLOBAL DIGITALISATION In a context of increasing digitalisation which affects the life of each and every European citizen and all sectors of the economy, from finance to automotive industry, or agriculture and energy, we are witnessing a profound transformation, one might even say radical redefinition, of most jobs and business models. Many opportunities of value creation arise, and give rise to new industries and services.
Trust is the key to digital development.
On the “headsˮ side, digital technologies could dramatically improve the human condition. But in the framework of this unbridled digitalisation and its disruptive nature, we also need to assess the new risks associated with it: compromised confidentiality, security vulnerabilities, cyberattacks, and challenges to information integrity. On the “tailsˮ side, the exponential digitalisation now underway calls for greater regulation at the European or even global level, to defuse cybersecurity risks in the short term, protect values of citizenship and human rights in the long term, and ensure the very survival of our human civilisation.
