Skipr, a self-operating trust infrastructure network for the AI era, has announced the closing of a $2 million seed funding round at a $10 million valuation. The investment will support the startup’s expansion and the development of sovereign AI infrastructure from Hub71, Abu Dhabi’s global technology ecosystem.
The company is building a trust layer designed to enable artificial intelligence systems to communicate, coordinate, and exchange value securely across cloud environments and national borders, while ensuring that governments and institutions retain full sovereignty over their data and decision-making processes.
A Growing Challenge as Autonomous AI Systems Expand
As AI systems increasingly operate autonomously across institutions, cloud infrastructures, and jurisdictions, a new challenge has emerged: how to allow these systems to collaborate safely and reliably.
Skipr addresses this gap by providing a secure framework that enables AI systems to interact and exchange information while maintaining strict control over data governance and regulatory compliance.
Infrastructure Built on Cryptographic Identity and Verifiable Governance
Skipr’s technology is designed to support sovereign and enterprise-grade AI environments through several core capabilities:
- Cryptographic identity frameworks that authenticate systems and participants
- Policy-based routing that governs how data and decisions are shared
- Auditable interoperability layers that ensure transparency and regulatory compliance
This architecture enables organizations to connect systems, deploy applications, and facilitate trusted interactions between AI tools operating across different networks.
Early Deployments with Telecom and Data Infrastructure Partners
Skipr is already collaborating with telecom operators, AI research labs, cybersecurity providers, and data center partners to deploy sovereign AI services at both national and enterprise levels.
These early deployments position the company as an infrastructure enabler for governments and organizations transitioning toward AI-ready digital environments capable of operating across multiple jurisdictions.
CEO Statement
Andreas Hartl, CEO of Skipr Technologies, said:
“This funding accelerates our work to build a foundational layer for the AI era. As AI systems become autonomous and interconnected, secure interoperability between AI systems within a framework of sovereign control is no longer optional—it is essential. We are building the trust network infrastructure that governments and enterprises need to deploy AI safely, confidently, and at scale.”
Part of the Hub71+ Digital Assets Ecosystem
As part of the Hub71+ Digital Assets ecosystem, Skipr operates within Abu Dhabi’s growing network of technology innovators, regulators, and strategic partners focused on building globally relevant digital infrastructure.
With governments and enterprises increasingly prioritizing sovereign AI capabilities, platforms like Skipr could play a critical role in enabling trusted, interoperable AI systems across national and institutional boundaries.
