Digital sovereignty is becoming crucial as nations and organizations aim to secure data, comply with regulations, and reduce their reliance on foreign technology. The success of these initiatives hinges on addressing skill gaps in cybersecurity, data governance, and cloud management. Upskilling and reskilling are essential, with higher education and IT training providers playing key roles. Regional efforts vary, but the need for specialized talent is universal, impacting sectors like telecommunications, transport, and financial services. Continuous learning and strategic investments are vital for achieving digital sovereignty."Digital sovereignty is no longer a concept; it is a necessity. Are you ready to bridge the critical skill gaps and secure your digital future?" — Leonardo Freitas, research manager, European Skills Practice, IDC
