Beyond Hyperscaler: Europas Weg in die digitale Unabhängigkeit

What role do digital sovereignty, open source, and European cloud solutions play in an increasingly interconnected and geopolitically tense world?

In this talk, Frank Karlitschek (CEO of Nextcloud) and Lars Neumann (SVP of T Cloud) discuss why the cloud is now much more than just a technological decision. The focus is on questions of control, trust, and openness: How can companies and public institutions leverage innovation without falling into new dependencies? What role do open technologies play in security, transparency, and long-term operational capacity?

An open discussion about the cloud, resilience, and Europe’s digital future.
