Well… have a look at Rheinmetall, Renk, Hensoldt, Leonardo, BAE, SAAB, Thales… 🤭

We just discussed some services in our company. In some cases we put very much effort and money into tailoring the tools (almost no cloud solutions, but purchased products) and validated the resulting workflows for production. Non critical stuff (e.g. MS teams) can easily be replaced as long as other external partners play along.

Consulting companies must really factoring in the long run benefits, like leaving a walled garden and having more sovereignty. In the end of the day your folks need to tag that with a number and explain why people should invest more and what their gains will be. Many companies working as open-source advocates fail to persuade (otherwise there wouldn't be so many low effort low cost business standard [what ever that means] buyers).

I would be very much interested in following your approach. Please share links, when you are ready (I'll start stalking you on mastodon for that matter :-)

No problem at all. Actually, it is funny. Oftentimes re-positing (crossposting) leads to people addressing the cross-poster.

Did you find people for that undertaking? I can imagine it is hard to convince companies if they are already deeply invested. I mean, everything that isn't a drop in replacement will kill the processes and the productivity for some time. Some areas even have certified partners and processes in place which is an invest for itself.

Well, if you got an iPhone or a Phone that is not, yet degoogled, what good is it to trash the Phone? Thinking of the environment, it doesn't seem to be sustainable or economic at all. Use it till it breaks.

Beh.. that sucks hard.

When I buy from shops abroad it is the first info I search. It is awful if that info is basically hidden deep under 1000 links.

That would be a good proposal. In the last time we've got a lot of these GPT/Gemini based Apps popping up.

By the way: the first line of logos says something along the line of "known from" followed by media outlets. The sponsorhip is at the bottom of the page and it seems like it is vastly government sponsored.

Announcement: https://old.reddit.com/r/Startups_EU/comments/1j5njk2/europeanstartupseu/

Hey Europe!

We’ve launched a small initiative called european-startups.eu to bring together all European startups, brands, products, and initiatives in one place. We are a group of people working in different areas within the IT space, but all with a shared goal: to make European startups more visible.

While there are platforms like ProductHunt and other websites showcasing EU products and alternatives, we wanted to combine the best of both.

We've introduced a voting system where you can upvote projects you like. Each week, the featured projects will change, and the winners will be highlighted on our website. A newsletter will also be sent to subscribers with updates. No sponsorships, no shady practices. The only option we may consider is adding sponsors to a separate page or to the footer with a very minimal logo.

Additionally, we’re running our own AI locally, connected to DNB & VIES, to gather EU companies into one easy-to-navigate list.

We already got featured in some areas, so I hope our server is powerful enough to handle the traffic. We still have a lot to do.

PS Fun fact: we used 16-core 32gb from Hetzner to run all these fancy stuff. 😄

The time was 2022 🙈

Ich kann ja den Preis anpassen, aber ich wollte eher darauf abzielen, wie VW Preise gestaltet :-).

Grundlegend spricht ja auch nichts dagegen. Einigen Arbeitern von strauchelnden Unternehmen wurde eine Stelle bei Rheinmetall in der Munitionsfertigung angeboten. Ein Alstom Werk wurde von Rheinmetall übernommen... da ist also viel im Wandel.

You can always got with Apps that manage tasks by using a caldav server. These might be a little bit limited, though.

"Also.. Basisversion, da liegen wir so bei 250.000€.. aber wenn sie ne Klima oder nen Navi - wir reden hier ja auch Infotainment - dazu haben wollen.. tja. Dann wird's wohl ein bisschen mehr kosten Herr Pistorius."

I'm trying Lunatask. It's a one-man project, and the author is from the Czech Republic. The software looks interesting, complete, and visually appealing. It also stands out from a privacy perspective, offering end-to-end encryption.

I suppose the capacity for about 80% of the need is there.

We (EU) just don’t have products for few certain military needs.

Mentioned by nightm4re I would really love for this thingy to skyrocket.

And yes, I know.... I know.. drop in replacement, usability, acceptance. Is a simple monkey not allowed to dream?

Found on r/buyFromEU: a promo video by our Polish neighbours. It can be enjoyed with subtitles.

Overall, I think it is a nice campaign and shows some products and inventions you wouldn't associate with Poland at a frist glimpse.

Eventhough dated (2014) these maps might be a good starting point for a closer look at supply chains and economic dependencies.

In regards to everyday products this begs the question if people could really go "cold turkey European only". It should be impossible, especially since all manufacturers rely on goods from different countries.

Which doesn't imply, that the gist of strengthening Europe is futil. But it makes clear, that this is a marathon and not a sprint.

 

For those searching a mastodon instance, this tool might help to find a neat little living room.
