At a time of profound geopolitical change and growing debates about Europe’s digital sovereignty, the European Data Summit 2026 brings together leading figures from politics, regulation, business and civil society to discuss the next phase of the European digital strategy.
Under the motto “Enforce. Simplify. Build.”, the Summit explores how Europe can ensure credible enforcement in the transatlantic context, simplify regulation in a targeted manner, and strengthen its technological capabilities – from modern data law and cloud infrastructures to skills, investments, and strategic procurement.
The European Data Summit provides a platform for strategic exchange on how Europe can translate regulatory leadership into innovation, competitiveness and digital sovereignty.
