Tech Monitor’s Roundtable: Data Sovereignty and AI: Rethinking Cloud Infrastructure in Europe in partnership with AMD, taking place in London on the 24th September 2025. For enterprise organisations, cloud adoption is not a single moment in time. In an era of change characterized by geopolitical volatility and technological advancement, the nature and shape of an enterprise cloud strategy is – or should be – up for debate, subject to transformation. Take data sovereignty, for example. Is it time to reconsider reliance on US hyperscalers when the residency and protection of geographically-sensitive data cannot be assured? If it is, what other public cloud services are worth considering? And how would adoption work in practice? Meanwhile, the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) is making new demands of compute, hardware, software and services. And it’s asking big questions of the business, too, from ethics and accuracy to environmental sustainability. In short, it’s time to rethink cloud infrastructure. To help you make sense of the present and the future – and to share best practice – Tech Monitor and AMD are inviting a select group of IT executives to a special evening of discussion and exploration. We’ll examine the changing cloud landscape and among the topics we’ll discuss:

• Data sovereignty and privacy
• The pros and cons of hyperscalers
• The adoption challenges of generative AI
• Sourcing large language models (LLMs)
• Data centre strategy and sustainability
• Data residency, compliance, and auditability

  Do join us for what promises to be an evening of lively and insightful conversation, excellent food, and great company.
