Evidence: Supports 2025 EU AI adoption rates for enterprises overall, by size and by sector.
The Eurostat enterprise ICT survey covers enterprises with at least 10 employees and self-employed persons and defined economic activities. Sector rates are within-sector adoption rates, not sector shares of all AI-using enterprises.
Sector rows are sourced from the Eurostat enterprise AI article and benchmarked against the EU all-enterprise adoption rate. The multiple divides the sector rate by the EU average.
Rows and benchmark use Eurostat 2025 percentages and a common survey scope.
