Airbus and others invite the supreme sovereignty and independence fund in Europe

Airbus More than 90 other European companies and groups of European UNHCR lobby have called for the establishment of a sovereign infrastructure fund to increase public investment and enhance independence in the region in the technology sector.

In a message on March 14 addressed to the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Lin and the Vice President of Henna Verconine, the signers – which include Dassault systemsThe resource of French cloud services Ovhcloud And the European Employment Start Network-stressed the need for technological self-reliance in Europe because it faces a “flagrant truth” after “developments in relations between the United States/European Union.”

“Building strategic self -government in the main sectors is now an urgent necessity recognized throughout Europe,” the letter said. He stressed that Europe is now in a “backward mode” in the digital space-after the United States and China have surpassed it-and it will have almost complete dependence on non-European technologies in less than three years at the current rate.

“Europe needs to restore this initiative, and it becomes more technically independent in all critical digital infrastructure layers: from logical infrastructure – applications, platforms, media, artificial intelligence frameworks and models – to physical infrastructure – constitutes security, and agreed to computing.

Among the most important requests for the message to obtain the “pragmatical industrial policy strategy” is the need to pump Europe to pump official requirements for the “European” purchase as well as motivate the private sector to direct towards similar purchases-with “not to exclude non-European players, but to create a space where European suppliers can legally compete (and justify length).”

The letter also calls for the establishment of a sovereign infrastructure fund for public investment in technology, especially in “dense capital” projects such as quantum and potatoes, and to request “important funds” that were allocated or subscribed by the European Investment Bank and the National Finance Authority.

Europe is ready to gain momentum in the technology sector, as executive managers and capitalists call for an additional investment to invest and regulate growth renewal – especially in the prosperous intelligence area.

Last October, the founders of some of the largest technology companies in Europe, including the CEO of Stripe Patrick Colison and co -founder Taveet Hinrikus, An open message signed Urging to create one entity for the whole of Europe to enhance startups and innovate in the mass.

The message noted a division between the countries in Europe, where “legal and organizational compliance is a burden, and the cross -border cooperation is rare”, and the signatories have argued that it stopped its competitiveness in the global technology stage.

Europe’s dependence on the United States dominates critical technologies such as artificial intelligence discussions in Web Summit Technology Conference In November, after US President Donald Trump won the electoral.

Endi Yen, CEO of Proton CNBC, told the conference that Europe needs to adopt a mental similar to American protection and become “the first Europe” to counter the technical hegemony of the United States.

Amid the United States’s entryistics policies and the hypothesis of customs tariffs, the European Union has increasingly sought to protect growth and enhance its independence, earlier this month, suggests financial measures that could mobilize approximately 800 billion euros (872 billion dollars) towards higher defense spending in the region.

It follows the shift in the European defense General disagreement Between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian leader Voludmir Zelinski. The newly -elected White House leader decided All military aid stopped to Ukraine After the fall, it leads Europe to reinforce its own Defense capabilities In an attempt to “intensify widely” its support for Ukraine.

European defense shares have increased from the back of these discussions, as regional and space space increased by 35 % since the beginning of the year.
