“People should own control of their data and have the sovereignty to choose where they run their workloads.”
For Andreas Walbrodt, Co-Founder of enclaive, digital sovereignty is not a new trend it has always been at the heart of the company’s mission.
As a German deep tech software company, enclaive focuses on making the cloud a safer place for organisations by enabling data to remain encrypted at all times, including while being processed.
Its technology helps companies maintain control over their data while keeping the freedom to choose their preferred infrastructure.
Making Digital Sovereignty a Reality
The conversation around digital sovereignty has grown significantly in recent years.
Organisations across industries are increasingly asking important questions: Where is my data hosted? Who has access to it? How can I maintain control over my critical assets?
For enclaive, sovereignty comes down to two fundamental principles: choice and control.
Companies need the ability to choose where their workloads run while maintaining control over the most important elements of their security architecture.
Building Stronger European Technology Ecosystems
For European companies, innovation alone is not enough. Strong ecosystems are essential to creating market opportunities.
enclaive joined the European Champions Alliance because it believes European companies need to collaborate across borders.
According to Andreas, Europe must overcome its fragmentation and create stronger connections between technology providers, customers, partners, and system integrators.
“The Rhine is sometimes harder to cross than the Atlantic Ocean,” he explains, highlighting the importance of building stronger European collaboration.
Creating More Opportunities for European Innovation
One of the challenges facing European technology companies is adoption.
Europe has many innovative companies, but they need customers and decision-makers to consider European solutions when making technology choices.
The European Champions Alliance helps address this challenge by increasing visibility, creating connections, and providing a neutral platform where companies can collaborate beyond national borders.
For enclaive, this ecosystem approach is essential to helping European technology providers reach the organisations that need their solutions.
A More Connected European Future
The future of digital Europe will depend on collaboration.
By bringing together companies from different countries, industries, and technology areas, the European Champions Alliance helps create the foundations for a stronger and more competitive European ecosystem.
For companies like enclaive, joining the ECA means contributing to a shared ambition: building a Europe where innovation, sovereignty, and collaboration go hand in hand.
