Hi Europe! 👋 Our journey to build Europe’s first secure, sovereign and sustainable hyperscale cloud has just started. We need to put an end to the foreign dominance of the European cloud market – and power a digital Europe ready for the future. Read more about our journey here: https://lnkd.in/dGNvHKYJ

Tuesday's election in the US brings a critical question to light. To what degree is Europe dependent on critical infrastructure and security guarantees from the US? Now, more than ever, it is crucial for Europe to critically evaluate its reliance on foreign infrastructure, particularly in the digital realm. With foreign cloud providers controlling 87% of the European cloud market and hence, European data, now is the right time to ask if this is something we should be comfortable with. Being dependent on foreign clouds, at a time when digital infrastructure is critical for the functioning of our societies, by extension means that we are dependent on foreign leaders who could make unpredictable changes on a whim. This, combined with the added risk of a trade war, is a scenario that could put European companies and organizations hosting their data on foreign clouds at great risk. At evroc, we emphasize the importance of returning data sovereignty to Europe, ensuring our continent's data remains under the control of the users themselves, protected by European legislation, enforced by European courts. Let us seize this moment to strengthen Europe’s digital infrastructure, ensuring it aligns with our values and legislative frameworks. Let this be a wakeup call and a first critical step for all European government officials and CTOs towards securing our digital and economic future.

Europe must act decisively to reclaim its competitive edge. Mario Draghi's recent report for the European Commission underscores three urgent issues. ☁️ Let's lead the way to secure a digital Europe.

From his childhood years programming video games, evroc co-Founder and CEO Mattias Åström , likes to sit with complex problems and try to make them a reality. Using state-of-the-art, energy-efficient tech and AI, Evroc is building Europe’s first secure, sovereign, and sustainable hyperscale cloud while redefining the data centres running it. Now, that's one big, hairy, audacious goal—but Mattias and his team are the ones to do it! Care to join on the journey? The evroc team are hiring across Europe.

It’s 1983, and you just got home from elementary school. What do you do? Read Superman? Nah. You press the on button on your clunky computer, listen to the buzz of electronics come alive, and dive into coding your own game, of course. Talking with Mattias Åström , founder and CEO of evroc , about his journey into tech was nothing short of inspiring. How often do you hear a “from coding a game in our garage to building a next-gen hyperscale cloud” story? Just as well-coded games matter to gamers, Europe needs a solution to its surging data demands - an industry on track to rival the carbon footprint of airlines. With Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and IBM holding over 75% of our regional cloud market, where is Europe’s own safe-keeper? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s Evroc! Norrsken VC portfolio company Evroc is stepping up to the challenge with a bold vision: to reshape Europe’s digital future. Using state-of-the-art, energy-efficient tech and AI, Evroc is building Europe’s first secure, sovereign, and sustainable hyperscale cloud whilst redefining the data centers running it. It’s fair to say that the Evroc team are even reaching beyond the clouds. Earlier this year, they were selected as a 2024 Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum , joining the ranks of the world’s most promising startups and scale-ups in the WEF Innovator Communities. The coding journey has surely come a long way since ‘83, however, we’d still love to try that game, Mattias! Keep an eye out as they set the standard for the world’s cleanest cloud - soon in a sky near you.

We are very excited to announce that evroc has been selected a 2024 Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum . We look forward to engaging with private and public sector leaders to define the agenda for some of our generation’s most critical topics including the clean energy transition, improving productivity by leveraging cloud and AI technologies and bridging the digital divide. This is the second time for our Founder and CEO Mattias Åström to be honored by the World Economic Forum. Back in 2015, his previous company Eta Devices (now part of Nokia ) was also selected a Technology Pioneer.

Yesterday, evroc Founder Mattias Åström presented our plans for a sovereign European hyperscale cloud to German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson. Europe desperately needs its own sustainable infrastructure for cloud and AI and the evroc team is making it happen. Thanks to our rock star investors at Norrsken VC for inviting us to Norrsken House in Stockholm for the event. Sofia Lindelöw Niklas Adalberth Tove Larsson Agnes Svensson Luke Richardson

On Saturday, President Joe Biden signed a bill that reauthorizes Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). What this means in practice is that the US Senate has given US intelligence services a renewed mandate to continue to collect foreign intelligence information about non-US citizens located outside the United States (i.e. most of the world's population). National security adviser Jake Sullivan has called the program “one of the United States’ most vital intelligence collection tools.” It is important to note that this intelligence work takes place without the consent of the foreign governments whose citizens come under surveillance - the euphemism used for what is in fact espionage. This intelligence work often violates the laws in the territories where the surveillance takes place - e.g. GDPR in the European Union as those subject to surveillance are not asked to consent to their data being collected, stored and analyzed. If you use common Internet services and applications hosted by the American cloud hyperscalers (i.e. most of the Internet), your data and your privacy is at risk. It is as simple at that. And the same goes for proprietary corporate information as various leaks have shown that US surveillance has been used for industrial espionage against European allies. At evroc, we believe in European sovereignty, data privacy and building a sustainable future for Europe where our laws govern what data can be collected.
