As AI becomes ubiquitous, consumers\u2019 daily use of AI will double in most European countries in 2026. However, due to tighter European Union regulations, and less mature AI capabilities, European firms will lag their US counterparts on AI adoption. With lighter regulation and fewer language barriers, the UK will buck both trends.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>Defence spending will drive a 20% technology budget uplift for EU critical infrastructure operators. <\/b>In June 2025, NATO members pledged to raise defence spending to 5% of GDP, with 1.5% earmarked for \u201cenabling\u201d infrastructure. Forrester predicts public-sector bodies and critical infrastructure operators will see tech budgets rise by 20% next year.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>The UK AI strategy will drive public sector productivity but erode government trust. <\/b>The UK government\u2019s enthusiasm for US AI tech through partnerships with Anthropic and Open AI, refusal to sign international agreements on AI governance, and lack of interest in passing binding AI regulation will erode UK citizen trust in the government.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n&#8220;The European Union is making a concerted effort to become more competitive and reduce its dependence on global tech infrastructure,\u201d said Dane Anderson, SVP, International Research &amp; Product at Forrester. \u201cHowever, the reality is that ongoing volatility and operational constraints will compel European businesses to pursue more pragmatic strategies in both the long and short term. Forrester\u2019s predictions are designed to help European leaders analyse the dynamics and emerging trends to watch for in the year ahead. These insights will then prepare them for future challenges and enable them to take advantage of new opportunities to thrive in 2026.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nForrester has also released its 2026 Predictions for <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.forrester.com%2Fblogs%2Fpredictions-2026-ai-moves-from-hype-to-hard-hat-work%2F&amp;esheet=54333722&amp;newsitemid=20251008239598&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Artificial+Intelligence&amp;index=4&amp;md5=147df83c379231c46090db47fd6b0194\">Artificial Intelligence<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.forrester.com%2Fblogs%2Fpredictions-2026-tech-leadership%2F&amp;esheet=54333722&amp;newsitemid=20251008239598&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Tech+Leadership&amp;index=5&amp;md5=ccf751951182b2f3918eb458e00a5853\">Tech Leadership<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.forrester.com%2Fblogs%2Fpredictions-2026-cybersecurity-and-risk%2F&amp;esheet=54333722&amp;newsitemid=20251008239598&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Cybersecurity+%26amp%3B+Risk&amp;index=6&amp;md5=589ebe36e428cd58212f09b2d19c95fa\">Cybersecurity &amp; Risk<\/a>.
