The information and communication technology (ICT) industry plays a fundamental role in economic and social development that will benefit both the European Union (EU) and China if both sides commit to further cooperation. European ICT companies are among the largest investors in China and contribute to China’s development by transferring technology, creating jobs, contributing expertise, providing intellectual property (IP) and by training a new generation of Chinese engineers in the ICT field. A large percentage of European ICT companies have significant R&D operations with wellestablished links to Chinese universities and research institutes that contribute significantly to ICT sectoral development in China. Formed in 2001, the Information and Communication Technology Working Group consists of major European telecommunications vendors, service providers, digital
content providers and other companies that meet on a regular basis to assess reforms that can affect the ICT industry. The working group also serves as a platform for information exchange on developments in the ICT industry, including but not limited to standardisation and conformity assessment, services, technical regulations, R&D, interoperability and global harmonisation. The Information and Communication Technology Working
Group contains the Cybersecurity Sub-working Group.
