Swedish AI company Berget AI has raised €2.1 million (SEK 24 million) in funding. The investment comes as AI rapidly becomes critical infrastructure, while increasing regulatory requirements, geopolitical tensions, and the EU’s new AI legislation are driving growing demand for local control of data and AI workflows.

Berget AI's Platform

Founded by Christian Landgren and Andreas Lundmark, Berget AI is developing a service that enables organisations to build AI applications using open language models operated on sovereign infrastructure in Sweden. This ensures that sensitive data does not leave national borders and remains under European jurisdiction.

Berget AI targets developers who want to get started quickly without managing infrastructure, offering a modern alternative to both US hyperscalers and complex on-premise solutions. The full-stack platform combines ease of use with data sovereignty, open technology, and sustainable operations.

Data Sovereignty and Regulatory Compliance

According to Andreas Lundmark, more and more organisations do not want to place sensitive data in global cloud platforms. The company offers an accessible alternative that provides full control without requiring customers to build and operate their own infrastructure.

With the EU AI Act and stricter requirements for transparency, traceability, and data governance, the conditions for how AI is built and deployed in Europe are changing. Public sector organisations and regulated industries are increasingly demanding solutions that keep data and models within EU jurisdiction.

The funding round was led by Luminar Ventures, Wellstreet and Norrsken Evolve. The newly raised capital will primarily be used to accelerate product development and scale sales operations.
