Evidence boundaries

Organisation listings identify a reviewed canonical record. Model listings show an association in the source register; they do not by themselves establish model creation, current API availability, hosting location or infrastructure ownership.

Profile note

The original (2019–2020) European sovereign-cloud project, Franco-German in origin, now a 340+ member Belgian AISBL. Included here because its Trust Framework and compliance labelling are the substrate several 'sovereign AI' claims rest on, and because its trajectory is the cautionary tale of the segment: broad membership including non-European hyperscalers, slow delivery, and a shift in political energy toward EuroStack and IPCEI-CIS. Judge sovereignty claims that cite a Gaia-X label on their own merits.
