G42 has launched Digital Embassies and Greenshield, a sovereign operating model enabling nations to securely deploy AI while maintaining legal control over data, systems, and policies, regardless of infrastructure location. Digital Embassies establish government-to-government legal constructs defining jurisdiction, while Greenshield, implemented by Core42, translates sovereign policy into execution. It applies consistent sovereign controls across environments, governing identity and access, data handling, security, compliance, auditability, and continuity. Why it matters: This framework could accelerate AI adoption across the region by helping governments overcome infrastructure readiness gaps while ensuring data sovereignty.
