All · 10+ persons employed · Eurostat enterprise survey. The remainder is 100 minus the published adoption estimate. These are survey shares, not counts of respondents or measures of implementation depth.

○ Small: 10–49 persons · ● Large: 250+ · percentage of enterprises within each size class. Each point has its own denominator.

Survey scope, dates and source flags

Percentage of enterprises using at least one AI technology. Selected non-financial business activities (NACE Rev. 2 C–J, L–N and 95.1). Enterprises with at least 10 persons employed. Not intensity of implementation, productivity impact or share of workers using AI.

Coverage is European survey participants, not a global adoption ranking. Small firms with fewer than 10 persons employed are excluded. Size classes and the total are separate survey populations; percentages must not be added. EU is an aggregate. Non-response, survey design and sector mix can affect comparisons.

Source flags are retained: b = break in time series; e = estimated; p = provisional; u = low reliability. Missing and confidential values are not replaced by zero. No 2022 observation is inferred.
