Sovereign AI acceleration program
Help national institutions turn open models into useful, locally maintained AI capability.
The bottleneck
Open models alone do not solve local-language performance, accountable deployment, or maintenance.
The proposed work
Five evaluated country packages combining national AI infrastructure, local teams, a bounded public application, and independent evaluation.
PL R&D’s proposed role
PL R&D would coordinate the shared program and institutional partnerships. Academic and engineering partners would deliver specialist work; local institutions would own operation.
What we would examine
Five qualified agreements, then supervised testing and evidence-backed decisions about continued use.
