Data Sovereignty in Manufacturing

Building Trust with EU Reference Architectures

In today’s connected industrial world, data sovereignty is becoming a key differentiator for manufacturers seeking trust, flexibility, and compliance. While the Sovereign Cloud sets the stage for digital independence, the real challenge lies in ensuring sovereignty over industrial data itself.

Join our expert panel as we explore what it truly means not to have data sovereignty — from loss of control and vendor lock-in to limited interoperability and how these challenges can put innovation and competitiveness at risk.

We’ll discuss how manufacturers can establish true data sovereignty through open technology stacks, interoperable data architectures, and compliance with the European Data Act. Learn how reference architectures in the EU help create trusted, secure, and scalable data ecosystems across the industrial value chain.
