Building on successful deployments with leading European operators, Inmanta introduces its sovereign cloud automation solution to empower African telcos and infrastructure providers with cloud-like agility and high operational efficiency
Leuven, Belgium — 3 November, 2025 — Inmanta, a global leader in intelligent automation and orchestration for telecom and cloud infrastructure, today announced the expansion of its sovereign cloud automation solution into the African market, coinciding with its participation in AfricaCom 2025, part of the Africa Tech Festival in Cape Town, South Africa.
As datacenter and network investments surge across Africa, driven by AI adoption, digital services, and the need for data sovereignty, Inmanta sees a major opportunity to support telecom operators and datacenter providers seeking to deliver secure, autonomous, and sovereign cloud environments.
Inmanta’s team will be present throughout AfricaCom to engage with operators, datacenter providers, and technology partners interested in leveraging intent-based orchestration to automate infrastructure and service delivery across private and sovereign clouds.
Building on proven deployments with tier-1 telecom operators in Europe and beyond, Inmanta’s sovereign cloud automation solution is now available, leveraging its intent-based orchestration platform. It enables service providers to design, deploy, and manage datacenter and cloud infrastructure dynamically — reducing provisioning times from days to minutes, eliminating configuration errors, and ensuring continuous alignment between operational reality and business intent.
“As governments and enterprises worldwide seek greater control over their data and infrastructure, sovereign clouds are emerging as a strategic necessity,” said Stefan Walraven, CEO and Co-founder of Inmanta. “Our intent-based orchestration technology allows telcos and datacenter operators to deliver cloud services with hyperscaler-level agility while maintaining full sovereignty and reliability. Africa’s fast-growing datacenter ecosystem makes it an ideal market for this next phase of expansion.”
Africa: Rising Investments, Expanding Infrastructure, Massive Potential
Africa’s connectivity landscape is expanding fast, fueled by massive investments in subsea cables, national fiber networks, FTTH and new datacenters to meet surging demand for digital services, content, and cloud resources. As bandwidth and compute capacity scale up, operators are seeking efficient ways to deliver new services at cloud speed.
This makes Africa a strategic growth region for Inmanta—not only for datacenter and sovereign cloud automation, but also for its Inmanta Connect solution, which automates fixed-line connectivity and network services.
“AfricaCom is the ideal place to meet the innovators building the future of African connectivity,” added Walraven. “We look forward to partnering with operators and cloud providers to help them deliver fully automated services at scale and unlock the full potential of Africa’s digital economy.”
