90% of jobs will require digital skills within a year

Just a year from now, 90% of the jobs will require digital skills, Bulgaria’s EU Commissioner Mariya Gabriel said at a conference "Regional Development and the Success Factors of the Regions." The aim is to have so-called digital hubs in every area and region of Europe by the end of 2020.

The digitalisation of the business and administration is being phased in Bulgaria, with five digital hubs currently located in major cities. In order to develop the network, € 1 billion and 300 million will be invested in the smaller settlements under the Digital Europe programme.

Mariya Gabriel, European Commissioner for the Digital Economy and Digital Society: Some 227 municipalities have received a voucher for provision of free, high-speed internet for 3 years in public places. That's not all, of course. We need to work more on digital hubs. This is a one-stop shop where citizens can access training. It may be 15 days, it may be 3 months. Small and medium-sized enterprises, start-ups, before they start a business and after 3 months find out that they will go bankrupt, they will have that one place where they will be given information on what niche on the market their product is.
