Deliver Customer Experience with Full Control in a Sovereign Environment
Digital sovereignty is no longer optional — it has become a strategic priority for the most forward-thinking organizations. According to IDC (EMEA, 2025), nearly one in two European companies now places digital sovereignty at the heart of its technology roadmap.
For IT leaders, the challenge is clear: leverage AI and intelligent customer journey orchestration to drive innovation, while ensuring complete control over data, data residency, and regulatory compliance.
So how can organizations accelerate innovation without compromising control?
An Executive Dinner Discussion
Hosted by IDC, in partnership with AWS and Genesys, this exclusive dinner will bring together IT and business leaders, industry experts, and technology partners in the prestigious setting of the Hôtel George V in Paris.
In an intimate and interactive environment, this event offers a unique opportunity to exchange real-world insights and explore how sovereign architecture can become a strategic driver for modernizing customer experience.
On the Agenda
During the evening, we will explore topics such as:
-
Turning digital sovereignty from a regulatory requirement into a strategic advantage at board level
-
Orchestrating intelligent customer journeys within a sovereign cloud environment, such as AWS European Sovereign Cloud
-
Deploying AI in regulated environments: agentic AI, responsible personalization, and robust data governance
-
Reducing regulatory friction (GDPR, DORA, EU AI Act) while accelerating innovation
-
Identifying key barriers to modernizing CX while maintaining full control of data
The evening will feature expert perspectives, followed by an interactive discussion with participants.
