European Open Digital Ecosystem Strategy

Elektroschock writes: The European Commission is stepping up its efforts behind open-source software, rolling out a new open ecosystem strategy to support EU technological sovereignty, competitiveness and cybersecurity. Building on President von der Leyen’s political guidelines, the initiative will review the Commission’s 2020–2023 open-source approach and set out concrete actions to strengthen Europe’s open-source ecosystem across key areas such as cloud, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and industrial technologies. The strategy will be presented alongside the upcoming Cloud and AI Development Act, forming a broader policy package aimed at reducing strategic dependencies and boosting Europe’s digital resilience.
