Sovereign AI Infrastructure (KennisAI) for Trustworthy Mission Consortia
CEO at 8peaks
Antwerp, Belgium
About
We are 8peaks, an Antwerp-based scale-up specializing in Sovereign AI Infrastructure and Zero-Trust Agentic Orchestration. We are seeking to join consortia as a Technology Provider.
Our flagship product, the KennisAI Platform, bridges the gap between cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence and strict enterprise-grade Cybersecurity. We enable organizations to build, deploy, and audit Next-Gen AI Agents entirely on-premise or at the edge.
What we bring to your consortium:
-
Secure AI Deployment (Cloud-to-Edge): We provide a local LLM execution engine ( Mistral or similar) allowing organizations to run advanced AI without sending sensitive data to public clouds.
-
Zero-Trust Cybersecurity: Our MCP (Model Context Protocol) Gateway ensures that AI agents operating in critical sectors (public safety, healthcare, smart cities) never breach the secure network perimeter, guaranteeing zero data egress.
-
Agentic Process Mining: Our system securely ingests enterprise event logs on-premise to map inefficiencies and autonomously orchestrate workflows to optimize operations.
-
EU AI Act Compliance by Design: We provide native "Glass-Box" explainability and Article 12 audit logging, making our infrastructure perfectly suited for high-risk public service and digital technology deployments.
We are looking to partner with consortium coordinators, European Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIHs), and use-case providers who need a European-sovereign AI engine to power their DEP proposals.
