On 24 January 2014 European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso and Vice President Neelie Kroes met with CEOs from across the global economy together at the World Economic Forum in Davos to deepen and widen the network of corporate support for the Grand Coalition for Digital Jobs. The Davos Declaration, which was endorsed at this meeting, foresees the creation of 100,000 additional traineeships by the end of 2015. Since March 2013, 42 partner organisations have filled an extra 2,200 new digital jobs, 5,277 extra internships and apprenticeships and delivered training courses for an extra 269,000 people, fulfilling pledges they made to the EU’s Grand Coalition for Digital Jobs. Partners include Cisco, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, Samsung, SAP, Telefonica, and a range of industry and civil society associations. |
