UNICO IPCEI-CIS ONEnextgenIn a 2020 Joint Declaration, all 27 EU Member States stated that innovative cloud computing and data processing capacities are an essential resource for Europe’s economic recovery, long-term competitiveness, and climate sustainability. To achieve this strategic objective, a new Important Project of Common European Interest on Next Generation Cloud Infrastructure and Services (IPCEI-CIS), worth near 3 billion EUR, was approved by the European Commission in late 2023. Led by Germany and France, this initiative has also been actively supported by Belgium, Croatia, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Poland, Slovenia, Spain and The Netherlands.
The IPCEI-CIS Project by OpenNebula Systems (2024-2028) offers an alternative model based on leveraging European open source for mobilising the many technological and innovation capabilities in the continent and creating together a Next-Generation European Platform for the Datacenter-Cloud-Edge Continuum. This powerful “made in EU” alternative will offer vendor neutrality and a sustainable future based on global collaboration, but fully aligned with the values and priorities of the European Union.
