- May 06, 2026
Welcome to the digital age of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). Never before have all things digital mobilised as much FDI as in 2025, as the invaluable figures in this report reveal. The ICT and electronic cluster accounted for more than 40 per cent of global greenfield FDI in 2025, almost twice as much as the wider energy cluster including both fossil- and renewable-based energy. This new wave of FDI comes with distinctive features: capital intensive, concentrated, and still able to generate jobs. Access the report to read how digital technologies are redrawing the global FDI map.
