🇪🇸 The first Nextcloud Enterprise Day in Madrid brought together customers, partners and organisations from across Spain for a day of conversations about digital sovereignty in practice. Our ecosystem partners took the conversation further by sharing their insights in breakout sessions.

A big thank you to everyone who made this first Madrid edition such a success. The conversation continues!

🛡️ Running Nextcloud in an air-gapped environment means you physically separate it from the internet, while files and collaboration services remain available within the protected network. For remote AI-driven attacks, this creates a fundamental barrier.

We've recently published an article on this topic that goes into more detail. You can read it here: 👉 https://nextcloud.com/blog/protecting-digital-infrastructure-how-air-gap-prevents-ai-attacks/

Schools across six German federal states will have access to IONOS Nextcloud Workspace through a new public procurement agreement.

Migrating from Microsoft 365 to Nextcloud Hub doesn't have to be an all-or-nothing approach.

The Austrian Federal Ministry of Economy, Energy and Tourism implemented Nextcloud Hub for secure, on-premises collaboration and let employees continue to use Outlook and Teams for external meetings. Everything still syncs to Nextcloud, thanks to a Microsoft integration implemented by our partner Sendent.

An open platform grows stronger through its ecosystem. 💪

At #MozFest, our partner Conduction put the spotlight on Nextcloud as a platform for business software, powered by independent applications and the communities behind them.

🥱 Microsoft has announced “digital sovereignty”. Again.

Every time, it’s new terms that mean little when a foreign government can still demand your data or cut off your services.

The stack, licensing, updates and rules stay under Microsoft’s control, not yours. That’s sovereignty-washing.
