EuroCloud serves to:

• Build a pan European network organized in two tiers with a national level (France, Espagna, England, Belgique, etc.)  and a European level. The national level focuses on local topics and the European level on European topics, under the EuroCloud brand (or another if appropriate in a national setting).
• Build relationships with the European authorities (Commission and Parliament) to help recognize the Cloud Computing industry as the future of IT in Europe and to promote a stimulating environment for development and growth of the industry.
• Promote business relationships between members throughout Europe and internationally with counterparts such as SIIA.
• Promote technological relationships between members throughout Europe and internationally.

In addition, several leading analysts have commented on the importance of this initiative:

“Cloud computing is more than just a buzz phrase. It is here to stay and is expected to take an increasing share of total IT spending worldwide. The creation of EuroCloud is a major step for the European development of cloud computing. For example, it will find investment opportunities in start-up companies in Europe that develop solutions for hybrid cloud, which is expected to experience increased demand over the coming years.” - Dan Yachin, research director, IDC EMEA Emerging Technologies.
