Invitation to the Online Lecture: Building Europe’s Sovereign AI – The Bielik.AI Case
We invite you to join the online lecture “Building Europe’s Sovereign AI – The Bielik.AI Case”, taking place on 11 December 2025 at 10:00. The event is open to experts, practitioners, and anyone interested in artificial intelligence, European technological sovereignty, and open-source AI initiatives.
Europe can build sovereign artificial intelligence without isolation—by ensuring control, portability, and auditability across compute infrastructure, data, models, and deployment.
A compelling example is Bielik.AI, an open, community-driven family of AI models developed in Poland. Within just 18 months, nine models have been released, focusing on EU languages and embedding safety and transparency through features such as Bielik Guard. The lecture will illustrate practical steps toward a credible European path to AI sovereignty.

BeeGFS in Practice — Parallel File Systems for HPC, AI and Data-Intensive Workloads 6 Feb - This webinar introduces BeeGFS, a leading parallel file system designed to support demanding HPC, AI, and data-intensive workloads. Experts from ThinkParQ will explain how parallel file systems work, how BeeGFS is architected, and how it is used in practice across academic, research, and industrial environments.
When a production line knows what will happen in 10 minutes 5 Feb - Every disruption on a production line creates stress. Machines stop, people wait, production slows down, and decisions must be made under pressure. In the food industry—especially in the production of filled pasta products, where the process follows a strictly sequential set of technological steps—one unexpected issue at the end of the line can bring the entire production flow to a halt. But what if the production line could warn in advance that a problem will occur in a few minutes? Or help decide, already during a shift, whether it still makes sense to plan packaging later the same day? These were exactly the questions that stood at the beginning of a research collaboration that brought together industrial data, artificial intelligence, and supercomputing power.
Who Owns AI Inside an Organisation? — Operational Responsibility 5 Feb - This webinar focuses on how organisations can define clear operational responsibility and ownership of AI systems in a proportionate and workable way. Drawing on hands-on experience in data protection, AI governance, and compliance, Petra Fernandes will explore governance approaches that work in practice for both SMEs and larger organisations. The session will highlight internal processes that help organisations stay in control of their AI systems over time, without creating unnecessary administrative burden.
