KPMG Sweden and evroc create a blueprint for operational sovereignty in Europe

• A joint offering that takes regulated organisations from sovereignty strategy to live, European-controlled cloud and AI infrastructure.
• Built on evroc's platform, Europe's only fully sovereign cloud and AI stack, with KPMG Sweden guiding the journey from regulatory assessment to governance of live environments.
• Responds to rising demand from organisations under pressure to build resilience and reduce dependency amid geopolitical uncertainty.

Stockholm, June 23, 2026 — KPMG Sweden and evroc today announced a strategic partnership giving organisations in highly regulated and mission-critical sectors a single, end-to-end route to operational sovereignty. It addresses an operationalised framework spanning assessment, design, implementation, and ongoing governance. KPMG Sweden supports the entire operationalisation journey: assessing a client's regulatory exposure and resilience risks, designing a sovereign cloud and AI operating model, implementing it, and governing it over time. evroc provides the foundation: sovereign cloud, GPU infrastructure, multi-model orchestration, and its enterprise AI agent roc.

Sovereignty has been a principle in Europe for years. The harder question is how to put it into practice. Behind that question is a shift in how risk is understood: infrastructure controlled elsewhere is exposure an organisation cannot manage on its own terms, whether through legal interference, supply disruption, or a remote kill switch. Regulated organisations now face concrete pressure to prove not only where their data sits, but who controls it, how critical systems keep running, and how AI is governed, all while staying compliant with existing and upcoming EU regulations.

"While others provide components of sovereign cloud or AI, evroc is the only European provider delivering the complete stack from infrastructure to intelligence, with no dependencies on externally controlled software. What this partnership adds is reach and discipline: KPMG in Sweden takes that capability and makes it something any regulated organization can adopt with confidence and run at scale. Together, we are defining what sovereign operations in Europe should look like, and proving it works," said Mattias Åström, founder and CEO of evroc.

"Given the evolving technical and regulatory environment, regulated organizations need to be able to quickly adapt and evolve with confidence whilst maintaining ultimate control of their data, ensure resilience from cyber and other challenges, as well as ensure compliance with regulatory and audit requirements. By combining KPMG's advisory proven governance, risk, and assurance capabilities with evroc's sovereign execution environment, this partnership offers a clear path for us to support our clients in operationalizing sovereignty and regulated AI in line with their regulatory and supervisory requirements. It provides a proven route from ambition to sovereign operations without compromise, setting a new standard for how organizations approach cloud and AI for years to come," said Johan Engdahl, Advisory partner within KPMG Sweden.
