Analytical insights into the global digital ecosystem (DGTES)
Overview and analysis
This report presents and discusses the results of the application of the Techno-Economic ecoSystem (TES) methodological approach to the analysis of the digital ecosystem (DGTES). At the same time, the report reflects on the advantages of using the DGTES as a tool to investigate the European Union (EU)’s role in the context of the global digital landscape and to inform related policies.
Relying on selected indicators and metrics obtained from the DGTES database, this report offers a general overview of the global digital ecosystem over the time period 2009-2022. Besides describing its main features and structure, it provides a first mapping of the digital ecosystem through two main dimensions, geographical and technological. Keeping the policy perspective in mind, the report also presents examples of how the network structure of the DGTES database can be exploited to provide analytical insights on policy-relevant issues. In particular, it offers an original analytical look at digital leadership from the angle of strategic autonomy, dependencies and capabilities, focusing on the critical digital subdomain of cybersecurity, autonomous systems, and raw materials. It also underlines the role of EU funding programs in shaping the capabilities needed for a vibrant and globally competitive European digital ecosystem.
