Synopsis
Industrial policy has become central in the public debate after several years of neglect. Relying on contributors with different backgrounds, from academia to the public and private sectors, the book emphasizes two topics that are crucial to inform and motivate industrial policies in current times, expecially at the European level. The first part of the book touches several points related to global value chains, and how these are undergoing reorganizations due to factors related to digital transition. The second part of the book, instead, is dedicated to the role of infrastructures to store data for business, with a particular focus on cloud computing.
