Digital sovereignty has become a key strategic priority due to geopolitical tensions, tariffs, and regulatory pressures. Organizations can’t rely on sovereign infrastructure solutions alone; they must adopt a holistic approach across the network, data, software, AI, and people to ensure sovereignty and mitigate the risk of foreign interference. Sovereign solutions are emerging, but high migration costs and limited local talent pools hinder widespread adoption. To tackle the digital sovereignty challenge, tech leaders should consider minimum viable sovereignty: a pragmatic, risk-based approach that balances legal requirements, budget, and operational needs.
