Amid calls for sovereign EU tech stack, Evroc raises $55M to build a hyperscale cloud in Europe
Evroc is setting out to build a sovereign, hyperscale cloud company out of Europe, raising $55 million to do so.
By the end of second quarter of this year, the company expects to have two additional facilities operational in Frankfurt, with work already underway on its first flagship data centers in Sweden and France, scheduled for completion in 2026 with AI workloads as a primary focus. Evroc’s formal launch is slated for later this year, with Åström adding that it is already working with early beta customers in industries requiring a “high need for sovereignty,” including defense, public sector, health care and financial services. The bulk of Evroc’s 60-plus employees are focused on software development, spread across Sweden, France, and the U.K. Åström noted the London hub wasn’t originally planned but became necessary to attract top talent from major tech firms.
