Since 1977, the Digiworld Institute has been helping private and public actors navigate a world significantly disrupted by digital technology. The Digiworld Institute deciphers and deeply analyzes these changes by bringing together the ideas, strategies, and experiences of its members, in collaboration with research and the academic world, while incorporating geopolitical challenges for Europe and its regions.
Today, the Digiworld Institute has over 100 members and contributors, including large international groups, mid-sized companies, SMEs, startups, institutions, universities, local authorities, and leading figures.
With its community, the Digiworld Institute is developing a European roadmap to make digital technology a driver for reindustrialization, inclusion, and regional development.
The think tank promotes exchanges among its members through unifying events that allow them to compare perspectives and co-construct, enriching each other with their diverse experiences.
