EU-level sectoral output effects of closing the DSM gaps – impact by 2020 (€2014 bn)

The sectoral pattern of results reflects the strength of the supply chain links between
computing and the wider economy. Communications and computing sees the strongest
boost with output higher by around 1 per cent. Relatively strong benefits also accrue to
sectors that use computing services and hence experience lower unit costs in the
simulated scenario, such as ‘miscellaneous’ (i.e. consumer) services.
