Global dependencies, geopolitical tensions, and growing regulatory uncertainties make one thing clear: digital sovereignty is no longer a topic for the future – it is an urgent priority for action. Anyone who wants to retain control over data, IT infrastructures, and applications needs concrete strategies and solutions today. This applies equally to businesses, public authorities, and institutions.

This is exactly where the “IT Sovereignty and Open Source Day II” as part of the Nuremberg Digital Festival comes in: Our focus day brings together thought leaders, practitioners, and decision-makers – and shows how digital sovereignty can be successfully achieved in practice, with real use cases, current trends, and clear perspectives.

Look forward to concise impulses, real best practices, and fresh inspiration from the region and the international open-source community.

The “IT Sovereignty and Open Source Day II” provides guidance, inspires, and connects decision-makers – for everyone who wants not just to discuss digital sovereignty, but to actively shape it.

Moderation: Johannes Bisping, founder and CEO of Bisping & Bisping GmbH & Co. KG in Lauf. As Vice President of the IHK Nuremberg Chamber of Commerce and Industry and member of the DIHK Committee on Information and Communication Technology, he has been actively engaged for many years in advancing the digital transformation of business and public administration.
