Orange SA has entered into a strategic partnership with infrastructure investment firm Morrison to establish a new data center entity based in France. This collaboration aims to bolster Europe’s digital sovereignty by providing localized infrastructure solutions.
Strengthening European Infrastructure
The joint venture is designed to address the growing demand for high-capacity data storage and processing within the European Union. By combining Orange’s extensive telecommunications expertise with Morrison’s experience in large-scale infrastructure management, the project seeks to reduce reliance on non-European cloud and data providers.
While specific financial details and construction timelines have not been fully disclosed, the initiative marks a significant step in the regional effort to keep data management and security under local jurisdiction.
