THALES SA and ALPHABET INC-CL A partnered to launch a sovereign cloud service in Germany in late 2026. The venture follows a similar model established in France to reduce reliance on providers from the United States. This deal secures Thales's position in the European public sector market as regulatory demands for digital sovereignty increase.
