Tech Giants Form Coalition for Open Digital Ecosystems in Response to EU Regulations

The Coalition for Open Digital Ecosystems (CODE), including Google, Meta, and Qualcomm, aims to foster innovation and growth in Europe by promoting open digital platforms and systems.

Google, Meta, Qualcomm, and seven other tech companies have formed the Coalition for Open Digital Ecosystems (CODE) in response to new EU technology regulations.
The coalition aims to promote open digital platforms and systems to stimulate European growth and innovation.
The Digital Markets Act (DMA) mandates that large tech companies must allow third-party inter-operation with their services and enable their business users to promote and finalize customer contracts independently of the platform.
CODE's membership includes diverse technology players such as Chinese smart devices manufacturer Honor, Lenovo from China, French augmented reality start-up Lynx, U.S. telecom equipment maker Motorola, U.K.'s electronics maker Nothing, Norwegian tech company Opera, and German messaging service provider Wire.
The coalition's objectives include promoting cross-industry collaboration, facilitating seamless connectivity, and advocating for interoperable systems to open digital ecosystems.
