We have four Platinum sponsors.
Our first Platinum sponsor is Lenovo. As a global technology leader manufacturing a wide portfolio of connected products, including smartphones, tablets, PCs and workstations as well as AR/VR devices, smart home/office and data center solutions, Lenovo understands how critical open systems and platforms are to a connected world.
Our next Platinum sponsor is Infomaniak.

It wholly owns its datacenters and all elements critical to the functioning of the services and products provided by the company (both software and hardware).
