- The scope of the Digital Partnership includes emerging and disruptive technologies (EDTs), such as semiconductors, AI, 5G networks, quantum computing, and cybersecurity.

- In an era of intensifying U.S.-China tech rivalry and recent supply chain disruptions, both the EU and South Korea see their digital collaboration as a strategic imperative for reducing dependencies and securing their economic futures.

- Looking ahead, the EU-ROK Digital Partnership has the potential to evolve from an ambitious framework into a transformative force for innovation, security, and economic resilience.
