About this event
Digital sovereignty — the ability of organisations and governments to maintain genuine control over their digital infrastructure, data, and technology choices — has moved from a theoretical concept to a board-level priority. Wolf Marcuse from Dawn Technology joins the KIN Centre for Digital Innovation at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam to explore what digital sovereignty actually means in practice: the strategic decisions, the organisational trade-offs, and the implementation realities. KINTalk is the research group's standing public lecture series, consistently drawing a sharp audience of practitioners, researchers, digital strategists, and senior public-sector professionals. Free to attend.
