The Ireland strategic roadmap for the Digital Decade developed by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment sets out the strategic goals to be achieved by 2030, monitoring their achievement, and the target paths and key measures have been developed.  

The report uses the data in the Digital Decade Report 2023 on the National Base Value of the Digital Decade Targets, the EU baseline value for Digital Decade Targets in 2023 and the EU target value for 2030.

70% of adults have at least basic digital skills, well above the EU average of 54%. Provided a positive trend is maintained, Ireland could make a positive contribution to reaching the 2030 EU target of at least 80% of the population having at least basic digital skills. A similar trend is observed for women with at least basic digital skills (72.6% compared to the EU average of 59%)3. The country also scores higher than the EU average for individuals with above basic digital skills (40% in Ireland versus 26% in the EU) and at least basic digital content creation skills (77% compared to the EU average of 66%). The proportion of internet users is at 95%, thus more people use internet in Ireland than in other Member States on average.

The Roadmap for Ireland consists of 4 chapters:

• Skills
• Digital Infrastructure
  Digital Transformation of Businesses
