​About This Event

​AI is no longer a strategic experiment - it is moving into the bedrock of enterprise operations. However, for organizations operating in the public sector, banking, healthcare, and regulated German industries, adopting AI comes with critical barriers: strict GDPR requirements, data privacy mandates, vendor lock-in, and unpredictable API costs.

​Sovereign AI in Practice is an exclusive, application-only gathering designed specifically for senior enterprise decision-makers and public sector leaders (C-Level, VPs, Heads of IT/Digital) who need to transform AI from a compliance risk into a secure, value-driven organizational capability.

​Hosted by Merantix Momentum and 2txt, and collaboration with SOPAKI, this event moves beyond general AI hype into practical, hands-on execution.
