US EditionPalantir Just Renewed Contract With France's Intelligence Agency - Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR)
The DGSI extended Palantir's contract to maintain operational capabilities while awaiting deployment of a new sovereign tool, with data fully stored and controlled in France.
- On Monday, December 15, Palantir Technologies Inc. announced a three-year contract renewal with France's Direction Générale de la Sécurité Intérieure , extending their nearly decade-long partnership.
- DGSI said the extension was interim pending a new sovereign tool, reflecting France's push for technological autonomy; Palantir's software met DGSI needs and supported the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
- Delivery will be handled by a France-based Palantir team with local leadership, supplying proprietary software platform plus integration, support and assistance, while all French data are stored in France and under DGSI control.
- The renewal sustains DGSI capabilities across counterterrorism, counterespionage and cybercrime, reinforcing Palantir's European expansion with France as its second-largest market in recent years.
- Amid those concerns, European data-sovereignty debates continue as campaign groups warn of mass surveillance risks and UK legal challenges target Palantir contracts, citing founders Peter Thiel and Alex Karp’s U.S. intelligence links.
