As enterprises expand their use of AI, new questions are emerging about vendor control, technology dependencies and long-term flexibility. Sovereign AI is becoming an important part of that conversation, and its implications go well beyond where data is stored. For IT procurement leaders, understanding these risks is increasingly critical to making informed sourcing decisions, negotiating stronger agreements and avoiding costly vendor lock-in.

Join us as we examine what sovereign AI means for enterprise IT sourcing, where the biggest risks lie and what procurement teams can do today to protect their organizations.

What you’ll learn:

• How sovereign AI is changing enterprise IT sourcing priorities
• Where AI models, infrastructure and vendor dependencies introduce risk
• How portability impacts cost, flexibility and negotiating leverage
• Which AI contract provisions deserve closer scrutiny, including pricing, model changes and exit rights
• Practical steps procurement can take now to reduce exposure and preserve options
