Capgemini Brings Sovereign-Ready Cloud and AI Solutions to the AWS European Sovereign Cloud

(IN BRIEF) Capgemini has made its sovereign-ready cloud and AI solutions available on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, enabling European organizations to modernize securely while meeting increasingly strict digital sovereignty, data control, and regulatory requirements, with Capgemini leveraging its expertise in regulated industries to help clients design risk-aware cloud strategies, build compliant architectures, and deploy industry-specific solutions that strengthen resilience, protect critical assets, and align long-term cloud strategies with national and sector-specific sovereignty objectives.

(PRESS RELEASE) PARIS, 9-Feb-2026 — /EuropaWire/ — Capgemini has made its sovereign-ready cloud and artificial intelligence solutions available on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, a standalone cloud environment that is fully located, controlled, and operated within the European Union. Building on its long track record in secure digital transformation, risk management, and delivery in highly regulated sectors, Capgemini is enabling European organizations to meet tightening digital sovereignty requirements while continuing to modernize and innovate at scale.

Across Europe, stricter expectations around data governance, security, and operational independence are fundamentally reshaping how businesses and public institutions design their digital strategies. Regulators, boards, and customers are increasingly demanding stronger oversight of sensitive data and critical systems, while organizations seek greater autonomy over their technology environments to reduce dependency risks and maintain long-term competitiveness.

The AWS European Sovereign Cloud expands the range of trusted infrastructure options for organizations with stringent sovereignty and compliance needs. Leveraging its deep expertise in regulated industries and large-scale transformation programs, Capgemini is working with clients to translate sovereignty requirements into practical, business-driven cloud strategies. This includes designing architectures that protect critical assets, enhance resilience, and support sustainable growth without compromising innovation.

Rather than treating sovereignty as a constraint, Capgemini is adopting a structured, risk-based approach that enables organizations to assess their regulatory, security, and operational requirements before defining technical architectures or operating models. This helps decision-makers determine the appropriate level of sovereign control, infrastructure safeguards, and assurance mechanisms needed to protect sensitive workloads. Capgemini is already developing tailored sovereign solutions on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud for regulated sectors such as financial services, public sector, and critical infrastructure, helping accelerate secure adoption.

Stéphane Israël, General Manager of AWS European Sovereign Cloud, said that the platform is designed to meet the most demanding sovereignty requirements while still providing access to AWS’s continuous innovation. He highlighted Capgemini’s industry knowledge as a key asset in supporting organizations’ AI-driven digital transformation, enabling secure modernization that aligns fully with European sovereignty expectations.

Fernando Alvarez, Chief Strategy and Development Officer and Group Executive Board Member at Capgemini, emphasized that digital sovereignty has become essential for responsible, scalable transformation across Europe. He noted that as regulatory frameworks evolve, organizations must be able to innovate with confidence, knowing they retain full control over their data and digital operations. By combining Capgemini’s expertise in secure cloud architectures, AI, governance, and managed services with AWS capabilities, clients can design, build, and operate sovereign-ready environments that deliver measurable business outcomes.

Capgemini and AWS have collaborated for more than 18 years, delivering secure, large-scale cloud transformations that drive agility, efficiency, and innovation. Through this continued partnership, Capgemini is helping organizations evaluate, adopt, and operate workloads on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud while meeting strict sovereignty and compliance requirements.

Together, Capgemini and AWS support organizations in modernizing mission-critical workloads within EU-only environments, strengthening regulatory compliance, improving resilience for essential applications, enabling innovation in sovereignty-aligned cloud environments, and aligning long-term digital strategies with national and industry sovereignty priorities.
