Spillover Effects of Data Centres: The Backbone of the AI Revolution in Germany

Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers enormous growth potential for Germany as a business location. A recent study, conducted by the German Economic Institute (IW) on behalf of the Alliance for the Strengthening of Digital Infrastructures in Germany, founded under the umbrella of eco, explores the innovation potential of AI. It quantifies the spillover effects of data centres, for instance, on employment and revenue growth in the context of the AI shift, based on a company survey.

eco on the Passing of the AI Act Implementation Act: A Sound Framework, but Enforcement Will Be the Deciding Factor

With the AI Implementation Act, the German Bundestag is laying the groundwork for the national implementation of the European AI Regulation. eco Association welcomes the one-to-one transposition of the EU requirements and the central role of the German Federal Network Agency (BNetzA), but still sees a clear need for improvements in terms of coordination and enforceability. Without clear responsibilities and uniform enforcement practices, there is a risk of legal uncertainty, additional bureaucracy and barriers to investment for companies. It's now crucial that AI regulation is implemented in a practical, innovation-friendly and consistent manner across the country.
