Nearly two in three C-suite leaders worldwide recognize that sovereignty over their AI and data is a necessity, not a luxury. Are you running scared or running the table?
Presented by EDB
A recent study conducted by EDB (February 2025) surveyed executive and technology leaders from some of the world’s largest enterprises across EMEA, North America, and Asia Pacific.
Between 11% (France) and 27% (Saudi Arabia and the UAE) understood that sovereignty over their AI and data is a mission-critical requirement, right now. And within three years, most leaders across major global economies will come to the same realization.
Based on three-year projections from the initial findings, Germany will lead the way (69%), followed by the U.S. and Saudi, while countries including Japan, Italy, and the UK will continue to lag.
