In this keynote, Dr. Sachiko Muto will explore how open source can strengthen Europe’s digital sovereignty, innovation capacity, and competitiveness. The session will highlight strategic approaches for policymakers, industry, and research organizations to foster sustainable open source ecosystems across the EU.
The afternoon panel discussion, “From open source to open ecosystems: Europe’s next digital play,” explores how Europe can turn its strengths in open source into thriving digital ecosystems that foster innovation, competitiveness, and technological independence. Moderated by Ingo Dachwitz, political journalist at netzpolitik.org, the session brings together leading voices from across technology, policy, and business for a dynamic exchange of perspectives.
Together, the panelists will discuss what Europe’s next digital play could look like, such as strengthening collaboration across public and private sectors or building open, interoperable platforms that can compete on a global scale while supporting European values and strategic autonomy.
Besides the keynotes and main stage sessions, the Summit will host three parallel tracks with curated hands-on sessions tailored to the unique challenges and priorities of the attendees.
Track 1: Open source for enterprises
Discover how open source solutions are transforming business operations, boosting workplace productivity, and driving innovation across sectors.
Track 2: Digital sovereignty for public institutions
Learn why secure, sovereign digital infrastructures are becoming essential for governments and public organizations, and how to implement them.
Track 3: Technical workshops
Get extensive knowledge of the latest tools, deployment strategies, and techniques for building scalable, privacy-focused collaboration environments.
Attendees can choose which workshops fit their interests best to maximize learning opportunities.
Explore what’s happening across the Nextcloud ecosystem through a mix of live demos, partner presentations, and hands-on technical sessions. Throughout the day, attendees can see how organizations are using Nextcloud to improve collaboration, strengthen security, and build more independent digital workplaces.
Some of the key topics featured during the live demo program include:
Whether you’re evaluating Nextcloud, planning a migration, or looking for new ways to extend your existing deployment, these sessions offer practical examples and the chance to speak directly with the people building and supporting the technology.
The Nextcloud Summit also offers the perfect backdrop for the live launch of Nextcloud Hub 26 Spring. Built for the future, Nextcloud Hub 26 Spring offers robust productivity and collaboration, integration with all your tools, and flexible and open ecosystem. By freeing users from vendor lock-in, Nextcloud Hub 26 Spring offers hybrid collaboration and privacy-respecting communication, away from Big Tech.
As digital sovereignty is often only discussed in theory, Nextcloud has launched the Nextcloud Awards to recognize those who are turning data freedom into practice. Attendees will get a front-row seat for the second annual Nextcloud Awards ceremony, which celebrates the people, projects, and organizations driving innovation and digital sovereignty forward.
The after-hours networking drinks on the rooftop of the Munich Marriott Hotel City West offers the perfect occasion to exchange thoughts on an idea-packed day and identify next steps for Europe’s digital future. From policy shifts to tech innovation, Europe is at a turning point. Be part of the discussion and shape what’s next for Europe’s digital landscape.
