What we are passionate about

,

Digital Sovereignty as a chance for Europe

This EU initiative aims at positioning Europe as a competitive leader in world-class, socially responsible and sustainable high-tech. The concept has evolved to become a discursive practice in politics and policy and challenges companies – whether located in or trading in Europe – to invest in trustworthy digital products and services. It includes data sovereignty, diversity, soft- and hardware sovereignty as well as jurisdiction.

Responsibility and ethics in the digital world

The rapid expansion of digitalization also came with unfortunate realities of the misuse and theft of personal and other sensitive data. Companies have the added pressure to show responsibility in all aspects of their business – product design, compliance, digital ethics, management, business relations. Digital Ethics becomes a criterion to assess companies.

Vulnerability in International Data Transfer

In this current digital era, personal data is possibly transferred globally. Expanding to Europe, a company is required to comply with the EU GDPR protection regulations and needs to appoint a EU representative. Meanwhile personal data captured and processed outside of the EU makes it vulnerable to lower standards of protection and therefore EU companies wishing to expand outside the region must consider the specific provisions relating to cross-border data flows and privacy protection in international trade.

There is no way around Global Compliance

Complying with local laws and regulations is essential for companies in a global environment. More and more big players require established Compliance processes for cooperation. The topic gains enormous relevance to build trust and can be an important competitive advantage – in a world where it becomes more and more difficult to differentiate yourself from the competition. Being and staying globally compliant is the only option for sustainable success – the complexity of this topic is no excuse.

Our Locations

Beside our headquarters in Munich, we are proud of our R&D center in Berlin as well as further branches in the USA and South East Asia.
