We, the undersigned associations, representing both cloud customers and cloud vendors in the European
Digital Single Market, are deeply concerned about the upcoming restrictions on data flows and cloud
services as foreseen in Article 27 of the proposed Data Act. Our members – which include SMEs,
start-ups, and large enterprises – rely on first-class, scalable digital technologies in order to provide their
services and products across the EU and beyond. They work tirelessly to build a competitive, innovative
and resilient digital economy in Europe. That is why it is so worrisome to see that the new restrictions on
data flows and cloud services in the Data Act risks undermining our sector’s efforts in achieving the EU’s
ambitious 2030 Digital Targets.
