If we want to encourage providers to offer sovereign digital solutions, we must make sovereignty a requirement in our procurement. 💶
The Commission awarded Sovereign Cloud call for tender through which the EU institutions, bodies, offices and agencies will be able to procure sovereign cloud services for up to EUR 180 million over a period of 6 years. 
And the results are clear – sovereign European solutions exist.

In the world of international education, training and career mobility, a person's achievements can easily get... lost in translation?
The European Learning Model aims to solve this by creating a universal ‘backbone’ that describes learning in a multilingual format.
A few tools are shared as open source on https://code.europa.eu, to allow reuse and help others to link their own systems.
