Europe and the Netherlands face an important question: remain dependent on Big Tech or take greater control of our digital future? Reliance on companies such as Google, Microsoft and Amazon raises questions about privacy, security, data and digital infrastructure.At EU TechFest, the tech ecosystem comes together to explore European alternatives and digital sovereignty in practice. From local cloud solutions and ethical AI to open-source software and data management, discover how to work more locally, securely and independently.

How?
Through interactive workshops, hands-on sessions and tech talks led by pioneers in sovereign technology. Learn how to implement your own “Big Tech Diet” and become independent, step by step: less dependence, more control. Discover local alternatives for data, the cloud, office software and more.

What?
An interactive programme brimming with inspiration and practical insights, covering topics such as:

  • Local data & the cloud — How do you build a secure, European infrastructure?
  • Open-source tools — What alternatives exist for everyday use?
  • Ethical AI — How do you implement AI without relying on Big Tech?
  • Legal frameworks — What are the rules for sovereign technology in Europe?

For who?
For professionals, policymakers, developers and anyone who believes in a digital future in which Europe and the Netherlands remain in control. Come along to network, learn, and above all, do.
