What is European Tech Map?

How do I find EU alternatives to my current software?
Use our search bar to find alternatives by company name or browse specific product categories. Each alternative product page lists all European companies that can replace popular US software.
Why should I switch to European tech?
European tech offers EU data residency, digital sovereignty, independence from US tech, reduced geopolitical risks, and is built with GDPR in mind.
Are companies on European Tech Map built with GDPR in mind?
Every company listed on European Tech Map is headquartered in Europe, which we check before listing. Companies headquartered in the EU or EEA are subject to the GDPR, and those elsewhere in Europe fall under closely related regimes such as the UK GDPR. We do not verify ownership structures beyond a small number of manual cases, so always confirm data protection terms with the vendor.

Yes! We welcome submissions from European tech companies. Visit our submission page to provide your company details.
How do I browse companies by country or category?
Use our directory to filter companies by country, category, or deployment model. You can also create shortlists to compare options.
