“Since 2011 we’ve set out to create Sports products that inspire people to move by taking away barriers and celebrating achievements. We were the first to integrate an optical Heart-Rate monitor into a GPS running watch and by integrating a music player we empowered people to leave increasingly larger and heavier phones at home. We have recently launched the world’s first fitness tracker that combines body composition analysis with steps, sleep and all day heart-rate tracking, right from the wrist – answering the age-old question ‘is what I’m doing, doing anything for me’. Today we’re incredibly proud to launch the Get Going campaign to further strengthen the TomTom Sports brand.” said Corinne Vigreux, Co-Founder and Managing Director, TomTom Consumer.
Patrick Stal, VP of Marketing for TomTom Sports adds: “This campaign marks a milestone for our brand. It showcases a TomTom Sports brand that caters to the needs of audiences ranging from those that are taking their first step down the road, to those that are stepping over the starting line of their first marathon. We are claiming a unique space in the world of sports. TomTom Sports is not here to shout at you to beat the impossible, be unstoppable, go harder, tougher, longer, deeper, rougher or sweatier. Let other sports brands do that. We want to help people where they need it most. Right at the beginning, where excuses often beat conviction. We want to be the brand that inspires people to Get Going and take that first step, no matter how big or small their effort might be, time and time again.”

Enterprise AI Hits the Wall: NTT DATA Research Reveals Growing Privacy and Sovereignty Barriers14.5.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press release
Demands for privacy and sovereignty expose limits of architectures built for centralized and borderless data flows. Data jurisdiction has become a core design parameter, shifting away from globally integrated systems to regionally bounded architectures. Organizations that redesign early are gaining a measurable edge in AI readiness and scale. NTT DATA, a global leader in AI, digital business and technology services, today released new research showing that enterprise AI is outgrowing the architecture and infrastructure beneath it as data privacy and sovereignty requirements tighten. The research finds a widening split between enterprises that are redesigning AI for control, locality and security, and organizations still layering AI into environments that were not built to support these requirements. For years, enterprise architecture moved data across systems, clouds, applications and borders with increasing speed and efficiency. AI is exposing the limits of that model. Sensitive data
