2025 VivaTech Confidence Barometer: Tech and business in the USA are confident while Europe moves at different speeds<\/span> <\/div>\n

AI, a Challenge Accepted by Businesses Everywhere<\/b><\/p>\n

100% of executives believe that the adoption of at least one new technology generates tangible benefits for their company, such as increased productivity (62%) and reduced operational costs (48%).<\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, AI clearly stands out as the technology most likely to have an impact on the companies’ business (65%), well ahead of cybersecurity (41%) and cloud computing (39%).<\/p>\n

Over the next 12 months, 85% of the companies surveyed plan to increase their investment in AI. <\/b><\/p>\n

Differing Perceptions of Competitiveness in the International Arena<\/b><\/p>\n

The United States<\/span> and the United Kingdom<\/span> are the most confident about the ability of their tech sectors to compete internationally, <\/b>with 92% and 81% of CEOs respectively believing their country to be at the forefront, unlike Italy<\/span>, which feels less confident (64%).<\/b><\/p>\n

Executives were also asked about the adoption of technological innovations by their countries. Here, too, executives in the USA<\/span> and the United Kingdom<\/span> feel their countries are leading the way, with 87% and 82% respectively believing their companies are at the forefront of the adoption of technological innovations. This contrasts with Italy<\/span>, where executives again see their country as lagging behind (44%). \u00a0<\/p>\n

Technological Progress: Source of Concern, Source of Solutions<\/b><\/p>\n

Three quarters (77%) are equally concerned about the invasion of privacy and the proliferation of fake news and the difficulty of identifying it<\/b>.<\/p>\n

The negative impact of tech on the environment is also a concern for 70% of business leaders among which, unicorns, startups and scaleups are more concerned with 47% saying they are very concerned <\/b>about this issue.<\/p>\n

But while technology <\/b>carries its share of uncertainties and risks, it is also seen by more than 9 out of 10 business leaders (90%) as a solution to the major challenges of our time.<\/b><\/p>\n
