Sovereign AI Foundation

The Eclipse Foundation has launched the Sovereign AI Foundation, a new initiative aimed at giving organisations and governments greater control over AI through open source governance. The move positions open source principles as a foundation for transparent, independently controlled artificial intelligence, and comes amid growing global debate over who owns and governs AI technology.

The Eclipse Foundation has announced the creation of the Sovereign AI Foundation, a new initiative in the open-source governance space. No further details on membership, funding or projects were available in the announcement. The move aligns with growing European and international efforts to build AI infrastructure independent of large US technology providers.

The Eclipse Foundation has co-launched a new Sovereign AI Foundation, an initiative aimed at advancing AI technology that nations and organisations can control independently of dominant foreign providers. The move aligns with a growing policy push, particularly in Europe, to build AI infrastructure and open-source tools that keep data and models under local governance. Details on founding partners and initial projects have not yet been widely reported.
