How to Implement Data Sovereignty and Localization in a Global Context

Policymakers increasingly highlight data sovereignty and, in some cases, data localization. Therefore, companies, particularly those operating globally, face growing pressure to interpret and implement these evolving requirements. This workshop explores the practical realities behind these policy shifts, highlighting where key operational and strategic challenges arise. Through real-world case studies, participants will examine how sovereignty requirements play out across different jurisdictions, sectors and technologies. These examples will showcase both common pitfalls and effective approaches, helping companies understand how to mitigate risks while maintaining efficiency and innovation. The workshop will also provide practical guidance on operationalizing sovereignty, including adapting governance structures, aligning technical architectures and engaging with regulators. Participants will leave with actionable insights to navigate sovereignty demands in a pragmatic, risk-based and business-aligned way.

• Understand how sovereignty concepts translate into real operational and technical requirements across jurisdictions. 
• Explore real-world examples to identify common challenges, pitfalls and effective strategies.
