From identification to transformation: measuring the impact of digitalisation.
Digital technologies offer new opportunities for achieving social well-being, economic growth and public sector reform. But it equally brings about a broad range of challenges, for instance related to digital divides, AI-driven biases, data centres’ resource demand and regulatory complexities as well as the need for reinventing business models and public service delivery. Overall, the fast-paced technology space entails a need about identifying future and emerging technologies and anticipating their impact.
Technopolis Group aims to provide guidance at the forefront of the digital transition. Our consultants support policymakers along the policy cycle to face societal, public sector, economic and industrial challenges posed by digitalisation and to seize opportunities enabled by digital technologies, such as artificial intelligence, cloud and edge computing, cybersecurity, IoT and quantum technologies. Our delivery of services is grounded in a human-centric, ethical and inclusive approach to digitalisation.
We’re constantly finetuning our approaches to help policymakers design smart policies and programmes supporting:
- Societal impact of the digital transition
- Digitalisation of industry, enterprises and SMEs, including the uptake of digital skills and the financing of tech startups
- Digitalisation of public services and government
As a trusted research provider on and evaluator of digital policies and programmes, we deliver key insights, evidence and metrics as well as strategic advice to support policymakers and industries. We help set up new digital initiatives, engage and consult stakeholders, support initiatives’ implementation and evaluate their scientific, economic, and societal impacts.
We help our clients to:
- Design strategy, market and policy interventions supporting the digital transition
- Evaluate and assess impact of digital policies and funding programmes
- Understand trends, opportunities and challenges with digitalisation
- Monitor the digital transition through indicator and monitoring frameworks
- Implement and manage programmes supporting the digital transition
- Communicate on the digital transition
In order to do so, we mobilise a range of methodologies comprising foresight and scenario studies, technology roadmaps, quantitative and qualitative research methods (incl. interviews, surveys and workshops), data science and AI models, and evaluations and impact assessments. Our approach is evidence-based, grounded in novel and traditional data sources.
