AI, Cloud & Sustainability for Europe’s Digital Sovereignty

NexusForum2025 brings together Europe’s AI, cloud-edge and sustainability communities to advance a value-driven, open and sovereign digital future. As part of the programme, the 8ra Initiative with the IPCEI-CIS funding programme will contribute insights on building a Multi-Provider Cloud-Edge Continuum – federated, interoperable and ready for cross-border deployment.

The summit features high-level keynotes, interactive panels, hands-on workshops on policy and standards, and showcases of EU-funded projects and real-world use cases, creating a setting where technology roadmaps can be coordinated with European priorities. A highlight on 6 November at 09:00 will be a panel discussion on the new IPCEI-CIS Reference Architecture.

NexusForum is a Coordination & Support Action co-funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme.
