Europe must become a driving force in the digital revolution.

Our mission is to help bring Europe to the forefront of digital competitiveness and to inspire a responsible application of technology that serves society.

What we do

The European Center for Digital Competitiveness was founded at ESCP Business School in Berlin with the goal of bringing digital competitiveness to the political and public debate, where it currently only plays a minor role.

Given the digital revolution that our economy and society currently face, digital competitiveness must take center stage in debates to secure our prosperity for the future.

Similarly, in this increasingly dynamic environment we want to support the initiative to position Europe as a global leader for the responsible application of technology for the benefit of society.
