Something I haven't seen much of before in Germany. In March 2025, Germany passed a €500 billion infrastructure fund. Digitalization is one of the explicit focus areas, with at least €4 billion per year earmarked for it. In 2026, Germany launched its first-ever dedicated digital ministry. That money has to go somewhere. Codesphere from Karlsruhe just won two major federal cloud infrastructure tenders in four weeks. A small German software company becoming a national infrastructure champion. In the US, the big government and defense contracts built the next generation of software giants. Palantir was founded on intelligence contracts. Anduril was built entirely on public sector deals. Maybe Germany is starting to understand that playbook. One example doesn't make a trend. But it's the kind of thing I'm watching closely. Are there other German software companies already winning from this? Would love to hear examples. #GermanTech #Digitalisierung #PublicSector #SoftwareMadeInGermany #DACH
