Secure, sovereign cloud for today’s public sector
18–19 March 2026
Crowne Plaza Gerrards Cross
We attended the Excellence in Local Government forum — a key gathering for council leaders, CIOs, digital directors, and public‑sector innovators. This event brings together Local Government professionals to tackle share challenges including continued financial pressures, increasing service demand, cyber risk, and the ongoing need to modernise safely and sustainably.
Across the two days, attendees got to share experiences, explore innovative approaches, and identify practical strategies to help councils continue delivering more with less.
What we we’re showcasing
At this year’s event, we put a spotlight on our Trust Cloud solution – our UK‑sovereign, resilient, and cost‑predictable cloud platform built specifically for the public sector.
As councils navigate VMware uncertainty, complex hybrid estates, budget scrutiny, and growing security expectations, Trust Cloud provides a safe, practical, and disruption‑free route to modernisation.
