Leontina Sandu, in charge of our Interoperability and Digital Government unit, shared what the Commission is doing to implement more open source internally.

She referred to the new Commission’s Open Digital Ecosystems Strategy that is being finalised and is focusing on how we can:
🔹 use more open source and interoperable solutions
🔹 assess and optimise them to make sure they fit our needs
🔹 share them

Watch the EU Open Source Policy Summit 👉 https://summit.openforumeurope.org/

"The EU faces an issue of excessive dependencies on third countries in critical sectors such as Cloud, AI, cybersecurity...

The urgency to strengthen Europe’s competitiveness and technological sovereignty has never been greater.

I have an agenda to build a path to our European Sovereign Ecosystem, to a situation where we are not just consuming tech in a black box, coming from abroad."
