Available for the 2024-2027 period is a budget of approximately 865 million euros.

The purpose of the Connecting Europe Facility for the digital sector (CEF Digital) is to contribute to the definition of projects of common interest aimed at the development of secure, protected, sustainable, and very high capacity digital networks, the increase of the capacity of digital backbone networks across all EU territories, as well as the digitalization of transport and energy networks.

To achieve these objectives, the 2024-2027 work programme allocates a substantial budget of 865.67 million euros, to be disbursed through specific calls for proposals and, to a lesser extent, procurement.
