The Slovenian ICT Horizontal Network Joins the Gaia-X initiative

We have joined the pan-European Gaia-X initiative, a step towards a connected and secure European cloud infrastructure aimed at ensuring the technical connectivity of providers and the interoperability of data spaces.

"In the digital economy, the winner gets everything," warns Andreja Lampe, head of Gaia-x Hub Slovenia at the Association of Informatics and Telecommunications. "According to the index of the digital economy and society, Slovenia ranks slightly below the EU average, but its gap is gradually increasing, so it is necessary to resolutely join the development," she emphasized. "Most of the world's economy will be digitized in the coming years, and we must not miss this process. Digitalisation is an important factor in raising productivity and economic growth, and the re-use of data enables completely new business models, where Slovenia's small size is an advantage and companies can reposition themselves in global value chains."
