ICT experts, entrepreneurs and scientists shared their insights with State Secretary Alexandra van Huffelen.

Europe and the Netherlands are lagging behind in this strategic digital technology. We are dependent on cloud and other data applications from outside Europe. This poses risks to our security and economic position. And it can hinder the use and sharing of data.

By working together on this issue, we can make more targeted investments, develop knowledge and innovations, and improve policy.

We thank you for the invitation and the opportunity to share our experiences from the business users of digital technology on behalf of CIO Platform Nederland. We look forward to the sequel.
