I'm working with a company building a governed, agentic AI platform that lets the world's largest regulated organisations run AI agents in their own environment, log everything those agents do, and attribute cost back to a budget line. They exited stealth in June 2026 with £6m ARR, 30+ people, and six enterprise customers signed within three months serving pharma, financial services, and telecoms enterprises with 5,000+ employees, running on HPE Private Cloud AI and Nvidia DGX systems. This is an opportunity to shape the future of sovereign enterprise AI.
