Wire, the leading secure collaboration platform, and Conceptboard, the pioneer in visual collaboration, are pleased to announce a strategic partnership. Together, the two European technology leaders aim to deliver an integrated communication and collaboration experience that combines end to end security, digital sovereignty, and seamless productivity for organizations across Europe.
Wire’s secure messaging and collaboration platform, trusted by more than 1,800 organizations worldwide and certified by Germany’s Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), will be combined with enterprise-grade visual workspace. Conceptboard's platform, renowned for transforming how organizations collaborate on complex projects and strategic initiatives, is trusted by Top Dax companies, leading public sector institutions, and innovative, security conscious teams across Europe to drive breakthrough collaboration and accelerate decision-making. The joint offering provides a unified, sovereign, and user-friendly environment, ensuring compliance with the strictest European security and data protection standards.
The partnership comes at a pivotal time, as European governments, critical infrastructure providers, and enterprises face rising demands for data protection, regulatory compliance (NIS2, DORA, GDPR), and independence from non-European hyperscalers. Wire and Conceptboard are committed to addressing these needs by offering a fully European solution designed to empower teams to collaborate without compromise.
Helmut Schmitz, CEO of Conceptboard, commented:
“Conceptboard has established itself as the leading visual collaboration platform for organizations that require both powerful functionality and uncompromising data sovereignty. By partnering with Wire, we're creating an ecosystem where teams can seamlessly move from secure conversations to visual collaboration and back, all within a trusted European framework. This partnership enables us to deliver on our vision: empowering organizations to think, plan, and innovate together with the confidence that comes from European values and infrastructure.”
Oliver Brown, VP Commercial at Wire, added:
“This partnership reflects a shared vision: empowering organizations to work together more productively and securely, without compromising on user experience or sovereignty. With our upcoming SDK launch, Wire is opening a new chapter of extensibility and integration, and Conceptboard is the ideal partner to deliver on that vision. Together, we will provide enterprises and public sector institutions with the confidence and tools they need to collaborate effectively in a sovereign European environment.”
This partnership underscores a growing momentum among European technology leaders to build trusted alternatives to non-European solutions. Wire and Conceptboard together are setting a new benchmark for how organizations from governments to global enterprises can collaborate effectively and securely, under European values and laws.
