Swiss government initiates $8.5 billion tender for cloud services

The Swiss federal government has officially issued a tender valued at approximately $8.5 billion for cloud services. This procurement initiative is primarily driven by the government’s strategic focus on enhancing Switzerland’s digital sovereignty.

By investing in its own cloud infrastructure, the Swiss government aims to maintain greater control over sensitive data and digital assets, reducing dependency on external service providers. The move reflects a broader emphasis on national security and data protection within the public sector’s digital transformation strategy.
