The Real-World Economic Impact of the Cloud and AI Development Act (CADA): What CADA Could Mean for Cloud Prices, Migration, Digitalisation and Europe’s Technology Supply Chain
The Cloud and AI Development Act (CADA) would create a common EU framework for deciding when public authorities, and potentially private organisations in essential sectors, must use cloud services that meet progressively stronger sovereignty requirements – ranging from UAL1 to UAL4, with each level further constraining eligible providers and technology architectures. The framework is intended

A think tank says new EU cloud and AI rules could cost Europe €233bn. Its own central estimate is €115bn, and a US tech lobby funded it. Check who paid before your board repeats it.

The research, conducted by the European Centre for International Political Economy (ECIPE), claims the European Commission's proposed Cloud and AI Development Act (CADA) could saddle Europe with €115 billion in costs over the next decade, more than six times the Commission's upper estimate of €18 billion. The report argues that restrictions favoring European cloud providers would leave governments and businesses facing hefty bills to migrate workloads and rewrite software. It puts direct public-sector costs at €33.3 billion, with a further €80 billion potentially falling on private companies in sectors including banking, healthcare, energy, and transport. However, a rather large asterisk is attached to that €80 billion figure. It assumes the Commission extends sovereignty requirements beyond public procurement to cover 25 percent of cloud workloads in essential private-sector industries. In other words, it's a modeled scenario, not a bill Brussels has already handed European businesses.

Технологичният суверенитет ще струва скъпо на Европа, предупредиха Google, Meta и Amazon
Американските технологични гиганти заплашиха Европа с големи финансови загуби заради опитите ѝ да установи т.нар. технологичен суверенитет, пише The Register. Ограничаването на зависимостта от американските доставчици на облачни услуги може да струва на региона 115 млрд. евро. Такива са изводите от проучване, поръчано от лобистката група CCIA Europe, сред членовете на която са Amazon, Google и Meta. Проучването е проведено от Европейския център за международна политическа икономика (ECIPE). Според резултатите от него предложеният от Европейската комисия „Закон за развитието на облачните услуги и изкуствения интелект“ може да доведе до общи разходи в размер на 115 млрд.

It’s about strategy and management as much as subsidies. The likes of BYD certainly benefited from past state support, but their operations were refined in a ferociously competitive domestic Chinese EV market. Meanwhile, European car manufacturers were eking out incremental engineering advances in the obsolescent internal combustion engine (ICE). As Hosuk Lee-Makiyama of the ECIPE think-tank wrote recently for the briefing service Borderlex: “Whilst Stuttgart optimised the diesel engine to the last decimal, the Chinese province of Anhui was dreaming of a self-driving electric car.”
