kDrive is the cloud-storage and collaboration product of Infomaniak Group SA, the independent Swiss technology company founded in Geneva in 1994 by Boris Siegenthaler and Fabian Lucchi (growing out of a 1990 user group). Infomaniak is one of the longest-running independent European hosting companies, privately held, founder-led, with no venture-capital or private-equity investors anywhere on the cap table. The company designs, builds, and fully operates its own Swiss data centres with all customer infrastructure and servers under its direct control, and ships an integrated ecosystem of products: kDrive (cloud storage and sync), kMail / Mail, kSuite (office and collaboration), Public Cloud (compute), Web Hosting, Streaming, Newsletter, kMeet (video conferencing), and more.
For an EU-sovereignty audit Infomaniak is among the most defensible Swiss listings in this directory. The compliance footprint is unusually broad: ISO/IEC 27001 since June 2018, ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14001 (environmental), ISO 50001 (energy), plus B Corp certification in 2025, the international label that recognises strong social, environmental, governance, and transparency standards. Switzerland holds an EU adequacy decision under Art. 45 GDPR, so transfers EU↔CH are SCC-free. All customer data is stored exclusively on Swiss-located infrastructure operated by Infomaniak itself; the latest data centre is built into the basement of a participatory housing cooperative and recycles 100% of consumed electricity as heat into the local district-heating network warming approximately 6,000 homes per year, among the most genuinely sustainable hosting operations in Europe.
kDrive pricing in EUR: Solo kDrive ~€4.42/month for 3 TB; my kSuite tiers bundle Drive with Mail / Documents / Meet / Spreadsheets / Presentation for from ~€7/month; business and Pro tiers above scale by users and storage. Best fit: every Swiss-jurisdiction-aware EU procurement-grade buyer; particularly compelling for environmentally-conscious organisations, public-sector procurement, and any team wanting an independent founder-led Swiss vendor with broad-stack collaboration (Drive + Mail + Docs + Meet) under a single provider. Together with Proton Drive and Tresorit, kDrive completes the directory's three-pillar Swiss-sovereignty file-sharing shortlist.
