The plan aims to strengthen the semiconductor ecosystem, unlock AI and cloud potential, reduce technology dependencies, and transform industrial ecosystems across the entire value chain.", "body_md": "The Commission is putting forward a multi-pronged, comprehensive strategy to achieve **technological sovereignty**, with initiatives that are interconnected and mutually reinforcing across each stage of the value chain, from chips, to infrastructure, to software, cloud and AI, and in synergy with past and ongoing initiatives such as AI Factories and AI Gigafactories.\n\nThis is reflected in **four initiatives:**\n\n- The\n[Chips Act 2.0](https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/chips-act-2)to strengthen the semiconductor ecosystem and supply chain resilience, and boost domestic demand - The\n[Cloud and AI Development Act (CADA)](https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/cloud-and-ai-development-act)to unlock the potential AI and cloud, to transform our industrial ecosystems and improve societal outcomes - The\n[EU Open Source Strategy](https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/open-source-strategy)to reduce dependencies across the entire technology stack - A\n[Strategic Roadmap for Digitalisation and AI in Energy](https://energy.ec.europa.eu/topics/eus-energy-system/digitalisation-energy-system_en#strategic-roadmap-for-digitalisation-and-ai-in-energy)\n\nYou can download the full Communication and its annexes below.\n\n## Downloads\n\n1.
