The DIGITAL4Business project is a major European initiative aimed at addressing the advanced digital skills gap by delivering an innovative Master’s programme in digital competencies tailored to the demands of the European industry. This paper presents the DIGITAL4Business ’ structure, objectives, Master’s curriculum design, and findings from a comprehensive needs analysis that identifies critical skills requirements in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and data science. Developed by a consortium of academic and industry partners, the 60-ECTS-credit programme is formally titled Master’s Degree in Advanced Digital Technologies for Business and is jointly delivered by four leading European higher education institutions. It provides European businesses with a digitally proficient workforce capable of driving digital transformation across various sectors. Designed for broad accessibility with pathways for diverse learners to engage in cutting-edge Education 5.0, the flexible Joint Master’s curriculum comprises 14 modules and is accredited at European level. Key recommendations and future directions aim to optimise the impact of the programme on Europe’s digital transformation, with a focus on sustained adaptability to emerging technologies and collaborative partnerships.
