Sovereign Stacks: Building Trusted AI on National Terms | RAISE Summit 2026
Mohsen Moazami, Thomas Di Giacomo, Cory Hawkvelt, Simon Muskett, Gleb Budman, Claire Thomas-Daoulas
Industry leaders including Gleb Budman, Simon Musket, and Thomas Di Giacomo defined sovereign AI as pragmatic organizational control over data and infrastructure rather than mere geographic residency, emphasizing that vendor exit options and workflow autonomy are the true measures of sovereignty. The panel further analyzed how geopolitical export controls and massive capital requirements are driving domestic innovation in China and the Middle East while urging Europe to prioritize open industrial ecosystems over attempting to replicate U.S. hyperscaler models. Ultimately, experts concluded that sovereignty will remain a critical strategic focus through 2035, though its definition will evolve to emphasize resilience and interdependence over isolationist regulatory compliance.
