10:00 28 March 2025

Google is launching a new cloud region in Greece. This investment will enhance the country’s digital infrastructure, attract further capital, and create thousands of jobs. The Greek government estimates that by 2030, this project will contribute €2.2 billion to the national GDP and create 20,000 new jobs.

Why It Matters

The new cloud region means faster, more secure access to Google Cloud services for businesses, government institutions, and organizations across Greece. With local cloud infrastructure, companies will experience lower latency, improved data security, and seamless integration with AI and computing solutions—all while ensuring compliance with EU regulations on data privacy and sovereignty.

For Greece, this marks another step in its digital transformation. The government, under Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, is actively positioning the country as a tech hub in Southeast Europe. The strategy is working—Amazon Web Services (AWS) established a local presence in 2021, and other tech giants are increasingly looking at Greece as an investment destination.

The Bigger Picture

Greece has been modernizing its digital economy, offering incentives to tech companies and investing in infrastructure. With Google’s new cloud region, the country strengthens its position as a key player in the region’s tech ecosystem, benefiting businesses, developers, and the broader economy.
