Deutsche Telekom signed a long-term strategic agreement with Google Cloud, extending into 2030. It focuses on cloud and AI integration for DT’s IT, networks, and business applications, including the migration of its SAP landscape.
DT has chosen Google Cloud as its preferred partner for moving key business areas to the cloud, including modernizing and scaling data and AI applications that are significantly contributing to the company's digital transformation strategy. “Deutsche Telekom is becoming an AI-first company. By leveraging data and AI, we are improving agility and optimizing digital solutions across all our business entities, software engineering, and customer interfaces to deliver superior experiences for our customers. Our collaboration with Google Cloud further strengthens these efforts, driving innovation and efficiency,” said Stefan Schloter, CIO for Europe at Deutsche Telekom.
Advancing digitalization is creating ever-larger amounts of data that need to be efficiently analyzed and used to enhance customer experience, services, and network insights. DT sees Google Cloud as the ideal platform for meeting these challenges while maintaining the highest security and data protection standards. The company's goal is to use innovative cloud technologies to develop new business models and further improve existing business processes.
“Communications service providers are increasingly looking to the cloud to further develop service offerings and drive innovation, flexibility, and growth,” explained Marianne Janik, VP for EMEA North at Google Cloud.
The "Tools for Modern Times" project, conducted by Hrvatski Telekom in collaboration with the University of Zagreb's Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation (ERF), was awarded the best in the "Telecommunications" category at the SABRE Awards EMEA 2025 in London.
