Launch of the 2026 EuropaNum Awards: The premier event for digital excellence and European sovereignty

Paris, France – March 10, 2026 – EuropaNum, the leading association for digital compliance and trust, is proud to announce the opening of applications for the 2026 edition of the "EuropaNum Awards." This pan-European competition has become the gold standard for independent digital solutions, recognizing organizations that place strategic autonomy and trust at the heart of their innovation.

In a digital landscape reshaped by geopolitical shifts, Europe must champion its home-grown leaders. "Sovereignty is no longer an option but a resilience imperative," emphasizes the President of EuropaNum. "Our Awards do not merely reward technological performance; they celebrate a solution's ability to protect the interests of European citizens and businesses against global 'geo-digital' challenges."

The award ceremony will take place in Paris on November 26, 2026, as part of the new strategic summit dedicated to digital sovereignty, Be SOVEREIGN. This prestigious event will gather industry leaders, European Commission representatives, and international media to celebrate exemplary and sovereign solutions in:

• Cybersecurity
• Ethical artificial intelligence
• Sovereign cloud
• Trust services
• Collaboration solutions
• Public sector digitization
• Digital inclusion (special prize)

Organizations and companies from across the European Union are invited to submit their applications starting today via the official platform: https://www.europanum.eu. Winners will benefit from global visibility and a label of excellence certifying their compliance with the highest sovereignty standards.

To ensure a scientific and impartial evaluation, every application is subject to the calculation of the EuropaNum Sovereignty Index (IndS@Enum). This index is a mathematical weighting of EuropaNum's four pillars of action. Each candidate will receive the "EuropaNum" label along with their "IndS@Enum" score, which will be published on the EuropaNum website.
