PHOENIQS, a leading provider of sovereign cloud and AI infrastructure, today announced its official entry into the NEXUR Technology Cluster, marking a significant milestone in the expansion of its European ecosystem.
As part of its long-term commitment to the region, PHOENIQS has also established a local subsidiary, PHOENIQS Hesperia, based in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. This step underlines the strategic importance of the Andalusian innovation ecosystem and reinforces PHOENIQS’ dedication to building a strong local presence.
The partnership was formally reinforced during a visit of a Spanish delegation to Basel, Switzerland, where representatives of the NEXUR cluster and stakeholders met with PHOENIQS leadership to sign and celebrate the collaboration. The visit underscores the growing importance of cross-border cooperation in building resilient, sovereign, and innovation-driven technology ecosystems in Europe.
