Sovereign AI – power, privacy and the future of intelligence
Do you use AI or does AI use you? Learn about Sovereign AI as a strategic option!
AI Sovereignty is the ability to have control over your AI and the data that goes in it. This is often not possible if you rely on third-party AI (like Claude, Gemini or ChatGPT) – you don’t have control. Depending on a single AI provider also creates risks regarding your data, costs, access and control. The speaker of this evening shares her inside on how to address these issues by introducing Sovereign AI:
Natalia is a Maltese AI engineer with eight years of experience building AI that actually ships, in factories, classrooms, and creative studios. She holds an MSc in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Malta, speaks at NVIDIA's flagship developer conference, and was recognized across three categories at Malta's Best Businesswoman Awards 2025. At RetroGradient Labs she leads strategy, client relationships, and product, with one rule: AI is only useful if it's trustworthy enough to put into production.
Finally, Sabine Roiss introduces the DEAI Summit Malta, where topics related to decentralization and usage of AI are the focus.
