Digital Sovereignty That Works
Open-Source Applications for Public Authorities, Operated in Europe
Municipalities, schools, universities, and institutions with a public mandate face specific
requirements: data protection must be resilient, websites must be accessible, and software
should not bind you to a single vendor for years. Open software operated in Europe
meets these requirements – provided someone takes reliable charge of operations.
Why Open Source
Public funds should create the most sustainable solutions possible. Open software can be
audited, adapted, and shared, and it can continue to be operated by a different service provider.
This reduces dependencies and ensures that decisions remain transparent even years later.
What We Operate
Accessible Websites. Contao and TYPO3 provide the foundation for accessible presences

Predictable for Budgeting and Procurement
Each application has fixed monthly prices per plan, which can be planned for in the budget. For procurement processes, we will provide you with a written offer including a service description. And because we rely on open software, the solution remains portable – even to another service provider.
Open, transparent, in Europe – this is how digitalization becomes sovereign.
