Leveraging the expertise of its shareholders, HOCHTIEF PPP Solutions and Thomas-Krenn AG, Yorizon provides an integrated cloud stack, from sustainable YEXIO data centers and high-performance, energy-efficient servers to its own hypervisor. The company emphasizes digital sovereignty, data security within Europe, and offers comprehensive cloud services, including IaaS and PaaS. Yorizon's mission is to empower businesses of all sizes to accelerate their digital transformation through sustainable cloud technologies, fostering a strong partner ecosystem to achieve this goal.
