Digital Euro Association

The Digital Euro Association (DEA) is an independent think tank focused on the development of digital currencies, particularly the digital euro, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and stablecoins. Based in Europe, DEA facilitates in-depth research, expert dialogue, and cross-sector collaboration to support the design and implementation of future digital monetary systems.

DEA acts as a hub for knowledge exchange between regulators, academics, fintech innovators, and industry leaders. Through working groups, position papers, and public consultations, the association helps shape the digital euro debate, providing informed perspectives and practical recommendations to policymakers and central banks.

One of DEA’s key missions is to foster an inclusive and innovative digital money ecosystem. By organizing webinars, workshops, and expert panels, DEA ensures that the voices of stakeholders across the financial and technology sectors are heard and integrated into the conversation about Europe’s digital future.

The organization also supports international cooperation and aligns its activities with global digital currency developments. Its commitment to transparency, neutrality, and interdisciplinary research has made DEA a respected contributor to one of the most transformative discussions in modern finance — the digitalization of money.
