The office focuses on digitalisation, AI and economic security, translating Nordic best practices – for example in digital government and civil resilience – into concrete policy options across Europe. At the same time, it promotes the tradition of the social market economy and ordoliberalism in Scandinavia and the Baltic states, seeking to renew these concepts for the challenges of the 21st century. Through briefings, events and joint research projects, cep Nordic Countries builds a bridge between public and private actors in the region and the wider European policy conversation.
