With its own data center in Graz, the solution enables companies and public institutions to run sensitive AI workloads in fully controlled, EU-based environments \u2013 from initial innovation projects to mission-critical scenarios. All data remains in Austria and therefore within European jurisdiction, helping organizations protect themselves from geopolitical risks, arbitrary price changes by international hyperscalers, and the risk of external shutdowns.<\/p><p>\nThe stack is designed to move AI initiatives beyond the pilot phase and scale them sustainably. Companies can start small \u2013 with individual racks, dedicated nodes, or edge appliances \u2013 and expand the infrastructure modularly up to complete sovereign zones as workloads grow. GPU- and accelerator-based computer resources, high-performance storage, and high-speed clusters are optimized for demanding GenAI and agentic AI workloads, enabling automation of knowledge work, end-to-end process orchestration, and secure operation of domain-specific AI assistants without compromising sovereignty and compliance.<\/p><p>\nAt the heart of the solution lies a sovereign architecture aligned with EU digital and tech sovereignty. Clients benefit from flexible usage models: token-based access to large language models running in the sovereign environment, including leading local and open-weight models such as Llama, Gemma, and Mistral, as well as customized, domain-specific models. Security follows a zero-trust approach with encryption at rest and in transit, hardware hardening, segmented network architectures, and strong identity and access mechanisms; for particularly critical scenarios, the stack supports \u201cair-gapped\u201d or highly isolated deployments.<\/p><p>\nGovernance &amp; Compliance by Design is a core principle of the stack. The architecture supports compliance with key European regulations such as the EU AI Act, GDPR, and sector-specific rules; deployments can be prepared to meet NIS2 and DORA requirements. The stack integrates seamlessly with GenAIQ, BearingPoint\u2019s platform for orchestrating and automating generative and agentic AI applications, and connects to existing enterprise IT landscapes \u2013 including networks, identity and access management, data lakes, ERP and CRM systems, and existing security and monitoring solutions. Target customers include public administration, defense and homeland security, financial services, healthcare and life sciences, and critical infrastructure operators.<\/p><p>\n\u201cDemand for sovereign AI infrastructure in Europe is growing rapidly,\u201d says Matthias Roeser, Partner and Global Leader Technology at BearingPoint. \u201cWith our fully proprietary Sovereign Infrastructure Stack and our own data center in Graz, we offer clients a platform on which they can run state-of-the-art AI applications in an environment that consistently respects European values, regulations, and security requirements,\u201d adds Philipp Sturm, Head of IT Infrastructure Services at BearingPoint\/Graz.<\/p><p>\n\u201cWe support our clients from AI strategy through the design and implementation of the infrastructure to the development and operation of concrete use cases with GenAIQ,\u201d says Tomas Chroust, Head of CoE Modern Data Platforms at BearingPoint. \u201cThe new sovereign infrastructure \u2013 combined with local large language models and flexible access models \u2013 provides the foundation for securely scaling AI initiatives and embedding them in the core business.\u201d<\/p><p>\nLearn more about AI Cloud: <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fgenaiq.bearingpoint.com%2Fen%2Fsovereign-infrastructure%2F&amp;esheet=54540863&amp;newsitemid=20260525934244&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=https%3A%2F%2Fgenaiq.bearingpoint.com%2Fen%2Fsovereign-infrastructure%2F&amp;index=1&amp;md5=4207de0916a9201b7751dff2b964c821\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">https:\/\/genaiq.bearingpoint.com\/en\/sovereign-infrastructure\/<\/a><\/p><p>\n<b>About BearingPoint<\/b><\/p><p>\nBearingPoint is an independent management and technology consultancy with European roots and a global reach.
