The story
Solvinity is a Dutch Secure Managed Cloud provider serving governments, financial institutions, and business services. The company manages critical national infrastructure including the Dutch digital identity system DigiD. Its proposed acquisition by U.S. company Kyndryl sparked sovereignty concerns about foreign access to Dutch citizen data, though a Dutch court ruled in May 2026 that Solvinity must continue its management role due to the unacceptable risk of discontinuing operations.
