Sovereign Tech in a Fragmented World

Digital sovereignty has moved from a policy debate into a strategic opportunity for regional growth. While the global tech stack fractures, local ecosystems are finding new room to thrive by building infrastructure that follows their own rules rather than those of a few distant giants. This shift toward "buying local" allows nations to reclaim control over their data, talent, and supply chains, turning what was once a dependency into a competitive advantage. Business leaders now face a map where national priorities and innovation must move in sync to succeed. Can this push for autonomy spark a new era of regional tech powerhouses? How do we balance the need for local control with the benefits of a connected global economy?
