Techcast Event Cloud: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Techcast Event Cloud is a SaaS platform for virtual and hybrid events such as conferences, webinars, press conferences, training sessions and shareholder meetings. Organisers set up an event with their own branding, registration, access protection and role management. During the event, livestreaming, video on demand, Q&A, polls, push messages and live audience video connections provide interaction. Techcast can also provide an e-learning platform, and the vendor describes AI features. The platform runs in the browser.

Techcast GmbH is headquartered in Munich, Germany. The website names no parent company or majority owner. According to the vendor, all data is stored exclusively on servers in Germany, and a data processing agreement under Article 28 GDPR is part of the service. The vendor describes its infrastructure as predominantly operated in Germany, with additional cloud services where technically sensible. For a European organisation this is an event platform under German law; it is worth asking which additional cloud services are used.
