Sovereign Interoperability - Applied research - Technical engineering
Building trust in a divided world
The Geneva AI Governance Institute (GAIGI) is a research and engineering organization that combines geopolitical insights with open-source technical guidelines. We help states and organizations manage regulatory differences while maintaining clear technical control. Our efforts connect geopolitical analysis and practical solutions. We don’t just examine governance issues; we developp tools to address them.
Why Geneva?
Geneva’s tradition of multilateral cooperation and institutional neutrality provides a stable anchor for GAIGI’s global operations. Proximity to the UN, ITU, WTO, and WHO facilitates coordination with international standards bodies while Geneva’s diplomatic infrastructure enables dialogue across geopolitical divides. GAIGI operates as an independent technical institute complementing, not replacing, national regulatory frameworks.
Our pillars
Capacity building
Develop sovereign technical capacity through strategic training on regulatory landscape analysis, protocol implementation, and multi-jurisdictional compliance. Programs designed to make governments and organizations autonomous in their AI governance decisions.
GAIGI certification
Achieve multi-jurisdictional accreditation through correspondence with major frameworks (NIST, ISO, EU AI Act, TC260). GAIGI certification demonstrates technical compliance and verifiable sovereignty safeguards, reducing audit costs across borders.
Research and policy
Policy briefs analyzing US-China-EU fragmentation, regulatory correspondence tables, and technical specifications for sovereign interoperability. Research combines geopolitical intelligence with open-source protocols—we don't just study governance challenges, we build tools to solve them.
