Author / Publisher: Henning Kagermann, Karl-Heinz Streibich, Katrin Suder
Format: acatech IMPULSE
Published: 12 April 2021

Digital Sovereignty is a key strategic policy issue. The importance of sovereignty in the use of digital platforms and applications grows with each new area of private, economic and public life that they are used in. Digital Sovereignty is not just a question of competitiveness, but also of the political autonomy of the European Union and its member states, the innovativeness of businesses, and the freedom of research institutions and all Europeans in the digital world.

This acatech IMPULSE publication presents a layer model that aims to contribute to the formulation of a concrete definition of Digital Sovereignty and above all to the development of concrete policy options for the different technology levels that build on each other to make up the model.
