Forrester sees global tech sovereignty edging up to 40% by 2030, US and China stay atop rankings
FORR•Semiconductors and software remain key constraints
Semiconductors and software remain major sovereignty constraints due to concentrated chip supply chains and the dominance of a small set of software providers.
Forrester projects modest rise in global tech sovereignty
Forrester forecast global technology sovereignty to inch up to 40% by 2030 from 39% in 2025 across 14 countries.
China and the U.S. are projected to keep the highest scores at 82% and 79%, leaving most others reliant on alliances to close gaps.
