Digital Skills Summit 2026

Join Us for the 2026 Digital Skills Summit

Europe’s competitiveness challenge is increasingly becoming a workforce transformation challenge. As digital technologies reshape strategic sectors from healthcare and energy to industry, infrastructure and public services, Europe must ensure that people and organisations are ready not only to adopt new technologies, but to work, innovate and compete in an increasingly digital economy.

DIGITALEUROPE’s Digital Skills Summit brings together policymakers, industry leaders, educators, workforce actors and innovation ecosystems to discuss how Europe can strengthen its skills base, accelerate digital transformation, and close the gap between policy ambition and operational implementation.

The Summit will explore key challenges linked to workforce readiness, competitiveness, digital deployment and talent development across strategic sectors. Discussions will focus in particular on AI and digital skills, workforce transformation, energy and sustainability, healthcare innovation, industrial competitiveness, and Europe’s broader digital sovereignty ambitions.

Bringing together leaders from EU institutions, Member States, industry, education and civil society, the Digital Skills Summit serves as a high-level platform to advance practical, implementation-focused action around Europe’s future workforce, digital resilience, and competitiveness agenda.
