Jörg Bienert

Co-founder of the German AI Association (KI Bundesverband) and managing director of the Center for Sovereign AI.

Digital sovereignty is not created through appeals, but through concrete infrastructure. Those who want to preserve European agency must ensure that government agencies, public institutions, and critical infrastructures can use AI systems without becoming dependent on geopolitical decisions made by non-European corporations or governments.
