# Fenja AI — Project Bifrost

# When AI runs Europe, who runs the AI?

We’ve spent years building data and AI across Denmark and Europe, watching one dependency harden after another. AI is different. The United States has made that clear. China has made that clear. You cannot stand strong in this century on AI you do not control — and for the first time in a generation, Europe has both the reason and the moment to build its own. The window is closing faster than most realise. It is open now. It will not be open long.

As AI moves into our hospitals, our courts, our defence, our schools — can we afford for the switch to sit in Washington?

### Three American firms run 70% of Europe’s cloud — and almost all of its AI.

Mario Draghi’s verdict to the European Parliament: only four of the world’s top fifty tech companies are European. “It is too late,” he writes, to challenge American cloud providers. Without radical reform, the EU faces “slow agony.”

### Denmark warns: digital society is now “extremely vulnerable.”

The expert group on tech giants reports: dependence on a handful of foreign suppliers is no longer a procurement question. It is a national security one. Minister Bodskov: “we need to fence in the tech giants.”

### Trump refuses to rule out military force against Greenland.

Two weeks before inauguration, the president-elect threatens “very high tariffs” on Denmark. The shock in Copenhagen is total.

### Microsoft cuts off the ICC chief prosecutor’s email.

A US tech company, complying with a US executive order, disables the digital life of an officer of an international tribunal in the Netherlands. The “kill switch” stops being theoretical.

### Microsoft admits under oath: it cannot guarantee European sovereignty.

Even data on European soil, with European staff, encrypted with European keys — US authorities can compel disclosure under the CLOUD Act. The legal fiction collapses.

### Copenhagen’s Microsoft bill jumps 72% in five years.

From 313 to 538 million Danish kroner. Copenhagen and Aarhus announce they will leave Microsoft entirely. The minister of emergency tells companies: “create exit plans for cloud services.”

### A Danish minister tells industry: prepare your exit plans for cloud services.

Caroline Stage Olsen begins moving her ministry off Microsoft 365. The minister of emergency preparedness urges every Danish company to do the same. Continued dependence is now classified as a vulnerability.

### Trump threatens tariffs against any country with digital regulations.

“American technology is not the world’s piggy bank.” The DSA, the DMA, the AI Act — all reframed as discriminatory trade barriers. Chip export restrictions are added to the list of consequences.

### The court that prosecutes war crimes can no longer use American software.

The ICC migrates to OpenDesk — an open-source suite delivered by the German Centre for Digital Sovereignty. If a global tribunal cannot trust Microsoft, the implication for every other European institution is unavoidable.

### Europe drafts a sovereignty law as US firms still hold 70% of the cloud.

Europe writes rules for infrastructure it does not own. US hyperscalers add €10 billion of European capacity every quarter — more than Gaia-X spent in a decade. The servers stay in Texas. The AI models stay in California. The law changes neither.

How Fenja AI addresses this

For regulated environments

## Fenja AI — Secure & Sovereign, hosted where it belongs.

Fenja AI is a sovereign AI platform, enabling highly advanced AI capabilities hosted within the client’s own secure infrastructure.

Supported by Innovationsfonden

One complete platform

## The Fenja AI platform in four steps.

1 / 4

The AI

### An open-source model, running on your own hardware.

A state-of-the-art open-source language model deployed directly in your environment. It gives you powerful AI capabilities with full control over data, performance, and security.

2 / 4

The Knowledge

### The business context that makes AI understand your world.

A built-in knowledge layer that helps the platform understand your terminology, processes, and data. It retains what matters, improves over time, and gives the AI the context needed to deliver relevant and accurate results.

3 / 4

The Tools

### How AI acts — not just what it knows.

The capabilities that let the platform do real work across your environment. From search and retrieval to data access, automation, and analysis, these are the tools the AI uses to solve tasks in practice.

4 / 4

The Agents

### Specialized AI agents working together around real tasks.

Purpose-built agents designed to handle distinct roles and workflows. Fenja AI includes both ready-made agents and the framework to build new ones, so you can orchestrate AI the same way your organisation already works — through specialisation and coordination.
