Sovereign AI (S-AI), a UK-based provider of AI infrastructure and solutions, has chosen Accenture and Palantir Technologies Inc. to assist it in developing and expanding next-generation AI data centers throughout EMEA. The project’s goal is to provide the government and business sectors with a strong, independent AI foundation.
S-AI seeks to meet the growing demand for sophisticated AI infrastructure, which is essential for both industrial development and national security.
With aspirations to extend into APAC, this partnership with Accenture and Palantir will expedite the development and implementation of its sovereign-grade AI capabilities powered by NVIDIA and Dell AI Factory, boosting digital resilience and economic security throughout EMEA.
Over the next two years, 60% of European firms intend to expand their investments in sovereign AI technology, according to a recent Accenture study.
“S-AI is committed to building the next generation industrial base for AI, and by investing in robust, scalable data centers in the UK and EMEA, we are poised to provide a solution which future proofs our customers for the requirements of the global digital economy.”
said Bradd Lewis, CEO of Sovereign AI.
“We’re committed to leading the next wave of enterprise AI, supported by resilient, integrated infrastructure and power solutions for critical sectors. Our transformative collaboration with Accenture and Palantir, powered by the Dell AI Factory and NVIDIA AI infrastructure, will help us strategically expand and scale our business for the benefit of our mutual customers.”
In order to provide enhanced capabilities and hyperscale NVIDIA-powered data centers created for AI using the Dell AI Factory, the program will support the development and management of new generation, transmission, and processing capacity.
These facilities can help ensure high-performing operations for regulated businesses while meeting the needs of AI workloads. From power generation to compute deployment, this buildout will be coordinated by Palantir’s AI infrastructure operating system, Chain Reaction.
Accenture will oversee digital transformation, operational excellence, and large-scale delivery, including sales and engineering support, while Palantir will supply the software needed to run and manage the vital infrastructure.
The high-performance, secure foundation required for sovereign environments will be provided by the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA. This will speed up the supply of S-AI’s sovereign-grade AI solutions, which are centered on safe, legal, and efficient operations.
Bryan E. Rich, senior managing director at Accenture, added,
“This collaboration will forge a new model for managing the expansion of safe, secure, and resilient AI infrastructure to address the growing need for national and economic security across key markets. Together, Accenture and Palantir will help S-AI set a new standard for AI infrastructure, which can position EMEA at the forefront of industrial innovation and national security.”
“Palantir Chain Reaction software is a key advantage in the buildout of AI infrastructure—not only as an operating system for business expansion, but also for delivering enterprise AI capabilities to key verticals.”
said Kevin Kawasaki, global head of business development at Palantir.
“Digital and economic security now require sovereign AI designed for efficient inference,”
said Justin Boitano, Vice President, Enterprise AI Platforms at NVIDIA.
“S-AI’s collaboration with Accenture, Dell Technologies, Palantir, and NVIDIA sets the blueprint for deploying AI factories engineered to generate tokens at scale—and turn efficient inference directly into revenue.”
