Elsenfeld, September 10th - Wire, the European leader in secure collaboration, and agilimo, a specialist in sovereign IT deployments and IT Security Made in Germany, today announced a strategic partnership to provide end-to-end sovereign communication solutions for governments, regulated industries, and enterprises.

The alliance combines Wire"s secure collaboration platform, trusted by more than 1,800 organisations worldwide, with agilimo"s expertise in sovereign IT infrastructures. Together, the companies deliver a unique offering: not only the most advanced end-to-end encrypted communication platform, but also the ability to deploy, operate, and manage it in fully sovereign environments, free from reliance on foreign cloud providers.

"Digital sovereignty is the foundation of secure collaboration," said Wire VP Commercial, Oliver Brown. "By partnering with agilimo, we unite Wire"s secure and transparent platform with proven expertise in sovereign IT operations. This empowers governments and enterprises to communicate with confidence, independence, and resilience."

DIGITAL SOVEREIGNTY: FROM POLICY GOAL TO OPERATIONAL NECESSITY

Across Europe and beyond, digital sovereignty has shifted from a long-term aspiration to a strategic imperative. New regulations such as NIS2 and DORA, combined with heightened geopolitical risks, are forcing governments and enterprises to rethink how they protect sensitive data. Reliance on non-European cloud providers often introduces legal uncertainty, compliance gaps, and potential security vulnerabilities.

"Our mission has always been to make sovereignty tangible for our clients," said agilimo CEO Marcus Heinrich. "With Wire, we are combining world-class secure collaboration with highly secure operational excellence based on IT Security Made in Germany that meets the strictest European standards. Together, we deliver independence and trust for organisations that cannot afford to compromise on security or compliance."

agilimo complements this with proven operational expertise: over 400 tailored IT solutions for government and regulated enterprises, certified and VS-NfD-compliant deployments, in-house SOC with real-time threat monitoring, and full lifecycle management from planning and rollout to operations and decommissioning.

"The combination of Wire"s innovation in secure collaboration and our hands-on deployment expertise creates a complete solution," added agilimo CEO Marcus Heinrich. "We ensure that sovereignty is not just a concept but an operational reality for our clients."
