Industry members weigh in on what is needed for the package to succeed.

June 2, 2026

The EU is set to unveil its long-awaited tech sovereignty plan on June 3, with the package expected to include the Cloud and AI Development Act and Chips Act 2.0, aimed at encouraging sovereign European cloud, AI and semiconductor capabilities.

It comes amid a push to strengthen European AI infrastructure and move away from Chinese and U.S. dominance. The Cloud and AI Development Act specifically targets tripling EU data center capacity within five to seven years, with a particular focus on AI giga-factories and hyperscale infrastructure.

Yet some industry members are warning that the bloc's AI ambitions may be outpacing the physical capacity needed to support them.
