Digital Transformation in Belgium & Luxembourg: What 2026 has in Store
Talan’s expertise makes the difference.
The year 2026 promises to be a turning point for the digital transformation of Belgian and Luxembourgish businesses.
As the European Union embarks on its “Digital Decade” to accelerate digitalisation by 2030, Belgium is already standing out on several fronts – rapid adoption of artificial intelligence in business, efficient online public services – while Luxembourg can rely on an ultra-high-performance connected infrastructure and a highly skilled ICT workforce.
Yet common challenges remain: ageing IT systems need modernising, the full potential of AI and data must be harnessed, sustainability (ESG) must be embedded at the heart of strategies, and talent and skills must be prioritised to ensure successful transformations. [gouvernement.lu]
Below, we review the major trends shaping digital transformation in Belgium and Luxembourg in 2026, illustrated with data and concrete examples, and we offer guidance for decision-makers in both countries.
The goal: to provide an inspiring yet pragmatic roadmap to capitalise on these developments and strengthen the competitiveness, resilience, and sustainability of our economies.
