FySelf on the Spanish route for a digital world
Originally published by: Find your digital self | FySelf Blog
The year 2020 has been especially hard for life in general, and the technology sector was no exception. Despite this, the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI), published last June, indicates Spain among the countries with the most progress in the last five years.
This indicates that the Spanish nation is clear that the digital path is key to sustainable social development.
This coronavirus crisis has shown how crucial it is for citizens and businesses to be connected and to be able to interact with each other online. We will continue to work with Member States to identify the areas where more investment is needed so that all Europeans can benefit from digital services and innovations.

Significant changes have taken place in the Iberian nation. In other articles we have commented on the Charter of Digital Rights, submitted for public consultation. In addition, the ambitious Spain Digital 2025 project, presented by the President of the Government himself, Pedro Sánchez.
With these facts, what is the Spanish tech context and what should you bet on?
Spain according to DESI: lessons
According to the DESI report, Spain still has a long way to go in order to position itself as a leading nation in the European Union. To do this they must reach the level of Finland, Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands.
In the list of all the member nations of the EU, Spain ranks number 11 on the Digital Economy and Society Index. This translates into an improvement in four of the five major indicators covered by the report.
Details according to the National Security website.
- Connectivity: The nation maintains the fifth place it had achieved in the 2019 DESI. It is valid to point out that connectivity at a national level has improved. However, restrictions due to the pandemic have postponed, for example, the auction process for the 700 MHz frequency band.
- Digital Competences: Spain’s values are below the EU average in human capital indicators. A trend that, despite this, was better this year in which the government is working on a digital training strategy.
- Internet use: This figure has grown and is above the average of the European region. Although in specific data, the online buys and sells are below the EU average.
- Integration of digital technology: Spain is in 13th place in the EU and its score coincides with the average for the region. Although the digitization of SMEs is somewhat weak, 200 million euros will help to improve very fast in the next two years. In addition, the nation wants to promote the integration of digital technology in companies.
- Digital Public Services: Here Spain has the second place in the EU and the indicators show a high level of online interaction between public authorities, citizens and companies.
The data we release today shows that the industry is turning more than ever to digital solutions. We must ensure that this also happens with SMEs and that the most advanced digital technologies are spread throughout the economy.
