#TheFutureIsYours Shaping Europe’s digital future
Development and promotion of Europe’s own chip production in order to be able to supply its own digital economy with hardware independently, as well as to open up a market dominated by East Asia and America. At the moment, Europe is almost entirely dependent on America and East Asia for technology needs. These are not only fragile long supply chains, hardware technologies are becoming increasingly obsolete as policies pooled in chips influence possible uses (see e.g. Secure Boot). For example, chip imports also import non-European interests. In addition, the production of chips is an undisputed technology for the future. Europe must not make itself dependent on an indefinite future, but should, on the contrary, stand alone.
