Europe needs its own version of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) of Elon Musk. This is the opinion of Deutsche Telekom CEO Tim Hettges. According to CNBC, a representative of a German company insists on reducing bureaucracy in the telecommunications industry.
Europe, according to Hettges, lags behind countries such as the United States and China in key technological innovations (artificial intelligence and next-generation 5G networks). He stated this during a round table at the Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona.
"Europe needs DOGE," Hettges told the audience, speaking alongside Margarita Della Valle from Vodafone, Christel Heidemann from Orange and Mark Murtra from Telefonica.
"We need an initiative to reduce this bureaucracy and this administration here, because there are tens of thousands of people managing our industries," he added.
EADaily reminds that Donald Trump's team announced plans to launch DOGE last year. The agency, which is headed by billionaire Elon Musk, is designed to reduce the administrative costs of the federal government. DOGE is not really a government agency, and its head, Musk, has not become an elected official. Since its inception, DOGE has tried to reduce the costs of federal government agencies by making huge job cuts in the Departments of Defense, Education and energy.
