The talk covers the regulatory landscape (EU AI Act, GDPR) driving demand for data residency and jurisdictional control, and explains how Telenor AI Factory provides Norwegian-owned and operated GPU infrastructure (H100s) for organizations with strict security requirements. Service tiers include GPU-as-a-service, AI dev-as-a-service (OpenShift AI with NVIDIA NIM), and a newly launched model-as-a-service with API access. Use cases include agentic coding for developers blocked from using frontier cloud models, predictive maintenance for telecom infrastructure, and sensitive-data chat for legal and humanitarian organizations. Pricing is positioned as comparable to hyperscalers, with sovereignty effectively included at no extra cost. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
