Romania digital decade report highlights connectivity and AI

The European Commission has issued a corrigendum and country report for Romania in its 2026 State of the Digital Decade communication, updating figures and assessing Romania’s digital progress and priorities.

• The corrigendum to COM(2026) 288 final corrects two values in the VHCN table: 85.6% replaces 85.5%, and 22.8% replaces 22.7%.
• The Romania report says the country remains strong in connectivity, is advancing in semiconductors and AI, but still faces gaps in digital skills, public services, and startup financing; it also notes EUR 4.5 billion of Romania’s recovery and resilience plan is allocated to digital and EUR 3.2 billion under cohesion policy supports digital transformation.
