Rather than a one-size-fits-all solution, GLBNXT adapts to each company’s data landscape, unlocking hidden insights and enabling efficient, AI-powered decision-making. The platform has already secured strategic sponsorships from prestigious IT vendors, including Dell Technologies, NVIDIA, Zeta-Alpha, and ITQ. Additionally, the company has demonstrated initial traction through successful pilots with Dutch municipalities, as well as early use cases in the healthcare and education sectors – proving the platform’s adaptability across complex, knowledge-driven environments.

GLBNXT was founded by Jan Saan and Richard van Anholt. Saan previously served as CTO of CM.com, bringing extensive experience in cloud computing and software development. Co-founder Van Anholt is a seasoned executive with decades of experience leading product innovation at NXP, General Electric, and Royal Bank of Scotland. Together, they are making enterprise-grade AI accessible for organisations of all sizes.

Enterprises today face a pressing challenge: keeping pace with the rapid evolution of AI technology while maintaining the high levels of security and compliance required in their industries. Most enterprises lack the internal expertise or resources to do both effectively. GLBNXT was built to directly address this gap. A unique aspect of the platform is its full operational sovereignty – entirely hosted and managed by GLBNXT on European soil. This approach eliminates reliance on third-party infrastructure, protects data from cross-border exposure, and ensures full regulatory alignment. By offering uncompromised, sovereign AI capabilities, GLBNXT enables organisations to confidently adopt and scale AI without sacrificing control, security, or compliance.

“Our belief is simple: technology should empower people, not constrain them,” said co-founder Jan Saan. “By fully operating our platform from European soil, we offer customers sovereign AI capabilities without compromise. This allows organizations to confidently harness the full potential of AI.”

The successful implementations across the healthcare, education, and public sectors underscore the platform’s effectiveness in complex and highly regulated environments. This early traction has resulted in strong interest from angel investors during the pre-seed stage, providing GLBNXT with sufficient funding to successfully launch and scale its initial operations.
