The European Commission plans to invest €1.3 billion (about $1.4 billion) in artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity, and digital skills between 2025 and 2027. This funding is part of the Digital Europe Programme, aiming to strengthen Europe's technological independence and enhance digital competencies among its citizens.
