Digital Sovereignty.
Our Karlsruhe Manifesto on Digital Sovereignty.
Digital dependencies, monopolistic platforms, opaque AI systems, and geopolitical uncertainties are placing new demands on business, academia, government, and society. Digital sovereignty means recognizing dependencies, making autonomous decisions, and remaining capable of taking action.
With the Karlsruhe Manifesto on Digital Sovereignty, the karlsruhe.digital initiative brings together the region’s expertise and outlines twelve areas of action. The goal is to further develop Karlsruhe as a center of excellence for digital sovereignty and to make a concrete contribution to a digitally sovereign Europe.
