National large language models (“LLMs”) are emerging as powerful tools customized to reflect a nation’s language culture legal framework and societal priorities. They support vital public sector applications in governance healthcare education and more while strengthening digital sovereignty. Countries such as the Netherlands (GPT NL), Italy (Modello Italia), and the UAE (ALLaM) have led the way by building models ranging from 7 to over 70 billion parameters tailored to their unique needs. Success in this domain depends on choosing purpose aligned architectures leveraging existing foundation models to control costs and ensuring sustained governmental commitment to updating and enhancing these systems.
Our team is ready to guide national LLM initiatives by defining clear investment and model development strategies aligned with long-term public objectives fostering partnerships across public institutions and private innovators and designing governance frameworks that ensure these models remain up-to-date robust and socially responsible.
