European AI Innovation Month 2026

AI Made in Europe: The Path to Digital Sovereignty, Nov 3 - Webinar has been postponed to 2027—date to be announced

Europe stands at a crossroads in AI. Between the geopolitical race for AI dominance, infrastructure constraints around energy and data centers, and the urgent question of whether European companies can rely on foreign models and infrastructure - or build their own - the stakes have never been higher.

Digital sovereignty is no longer just a policy talking point. It's becoming a strategic imperative for companies, governments and societies.

But what does sovereign AI actually look like in practice? This is an urgent question for all of us.

leiwand.ai is proud to bring together leading voices from European AI development and implementation to move beyond rhetoric and examine the tangible path forward.
