The Atlantic separates us, but Europe and the US are deeply linked, and our economies can only thrive together. Find out more about the EU-US relationship on our Thriving Together Platform. The data presented across this website is extracted from the latest edition of The Transatlantic Economy, the annual survey of jobs, trade and investment between Europe and the United States. The study is supported by AmCham EU and the US Chamber of Commerce. The research was conducted by Daniel S. Hamilton and Joseph P. Quinlan for the Wilson Center’s Global Europe Program and the Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS).

Strengthening connectivity through the Digital Networks Act
The Digital Networks Act (DNA) can help the EU build a more coherent connectivity framework for businesses operating across borders. Today, fragmented rules and complex compliance obligations continue to hold back innovation and Europe’s competitiveness.
To this end, the DNA must reduce – not add to – regulatory complexity, ensure legal certainty and avoid duplication with existing EU legislation. It should support investment in next-generation networks while avoiding duplication with existing EU frameworks. Clear scope will be essential to prevent unintended overlap with cloud, content delivery networks or private networks.
Read more on how the DNA can support Europe’s digital transition and long-term competitiveness.
