And the conversation on the floor made one thing clear: digital sovereignty has moved from aspiration to action. With over 600 registrations<strong>,&nbsp;<\/strong>decision-makers, IT leaders, government representatives, and open source advocates from across Europe and beyond came together for a full day of keynotes, customer stories, breakout sessions, and a milestone product launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The numbers alone tell part of the story. But what struck attendees most was the shift in tone. The question is no longer&nbsp;<em>whether<\/em>&nbsp;to pursue digital sovereignty. The question is&nbsp;<em>how fast<\/em>, and&nbsp;<em>what comes next<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Opening: ten years of building the better option<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nextcloud CEO and co-founder Frank Karlitschek opened the day with a keynote on how Nextcloud navigates the complexities of open source, compliance, and political reality. This year carries special weight: 2026 marks ten years since Nextcloud was founded with the explicit goal of giving individuals and organizations full control over their own data. A decade later, with Big Tech under intense political scrutiny across Europe and beyond, that initial mission seems more relevant than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"864\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/frank-summit-864x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-411549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/frank-summit-864x576.jpg 864w, https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/frank-summit-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/frank-summit-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/frank-summit-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/frank-summit-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Following Frank, Dr. Sachiko Muto, Chair of OpenForum Europe and senior researcher at the Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE), laid out a strategic framework for open source adoption in the EU. With her background spanning government relations, standardization policy, and European digital policy, she walked us through some earlier moments of excitement followed by disappointment. Her argument was straightforward: the EU has the tools and the mandate to make open source the default in public procurement. What it needs is the political will to follow through. Advocates can\u2019t stop when the right things are said, nor even when laws are updated. Only when change actually happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"864\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/sachiko_muto-864x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-411543\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/sachiko_muto-864x576.jpg 864w, https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/sachiko_muto-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/sachiko_muto-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/sachiko_muto-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/nextcloud.com\/c\/uploads\/2026\/06\/sachiko_muto-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sovereignty at scale: the French Ministry of Education<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps the most concrete proof of what is possible came from Beno\u00eet Pi\u00e9dallu, Project Manager at the French Ministry of National Education and Youth. France&#8217;s education system is one of the largest Nextcloud deployments in the world, and Pi\u00e9dallu gave an unvarnished account of what it actually takes to turn a sovereignty policy into working infrastructure, scaling to 1.2 million users. His session set the tone for a recurring theme throughout the day: real deployments require real decisions, real budgets, and real migration paths. Talking sovereignty is easy. Doing it is a different discipline. Why the ministry is moving to Nextcloud?
