As part of its Digital Agenda 2030, Luxembourg has unveiled an ambitious vision for the development of artificial intelligence (AI). The objective? Becoming a responsible European AI hub, building on a human-centric approach, technological sovereignty, and digital skills at all levels.
This strategy is part of a coherent triptych alongside the national strategies on quantum data and technologies, the three pillars on which the country intends to build its digital sovereignty.
AI focused on people, transparency and societal impact
Luxembourg wants to make AI a lever for ethical, inclusive and sustainable innovation, at the service of society and democracy. The strategy is based on several fundamental principles:
The fight against bias, disinformation and algorithmic drifts.
Trustworthy AI, respectful of fundamental rights and privacy.
Proactive regulation, in line with theEuropean AI Act, including regulatory sandboxes to test sensitive uses.
Digital skills at the heart of transformation
The development of AI skills is a central focus of the strategy, structured around five target profiles:
AI Creators (AI Excellence)
Technical experts trained in algorithm creation, model optimisation and AI ethics. Luxembourg relies on:
- The MeluXina-AI supercomputer.
- Research and advanced education programmes (Masters, PhDs, MTECH).
- Public-private partnerships for innovation.
AI Practitioners
Professionals (analysts, lawyers, project managers, etc.) trained to integrate AI into their sectors. Means used:
- AI4ALL programme (MOOCs, hybrid trainings).
- In-company learning through LIST.
- Technical trainings by CNFPC, INAP, Digital Learning Hub.
AI users
Non-technical professionals using AI tools (chatbots, decision-making tools, etc.). The objective: responsible and informed use.
Students and teachers
With theinclusion of AI in curricula, the strategy provides for:
- A GDPR-compliant AI educational platform.
- A sovereign chatbot for teachers.
- An intelligent educational database.
- Dedicated training for teachers and school leaders.
Citizens
The population is invited to increase their skills thanks to:
- The MOOC Elements of AI, adapted to the Luxembourg context.
- Webinars, study groups and local certifications.
- The objective: train 1% of the population in the basics of AI.
AI at the service of all sectors
The strategy includes flagship projects in the following key areas:
- Education: sovereign chatbot, intelligent educational database.
- Health: AI for personalized medicine.
- Labour market: skills predictive tools.
- Cybersecurity: democratization through AI tools.
- Climate: regional digital twin.
- Finance, energy, mobility, culture, space: sectoral integration of AI.
A structured and sovereign ecosystem
Luxembourg is setting up a national AI Factory, a real one-stop-shop for:
- Supporting companies in the adoption of AI.
- The development of tailor-made solutions.
- Access to expertise, data, funding and training.
Infrastructure, sovereign cloud and energy sobriety
- MeluXina-AI will integrate with a sovereign cloud architecture.
- Energy optimisation via frugal AI practices.
- Connectivity systems and Tier IV data centers for maximum security.
Integrated regulation and ethics by design
- Standardisation via ILNAS.
- GDPR and AI Act as frames of reference.
- AIregulatory sandboxes opened by the CNPD and the CGPD.
A European ambition
With this strategy, Luxembourg intends not only to strengthen its digital competitiveness, but also to play an active role in building European technological sovereignty, based on the values of trust, transparency and cooperation.
The Luxembourg AI strategy demonstrates a strong desire tocombine technological innovation and social responsibility. It lays the foundations for a society in which artificial intelligence is a tool for all, and where digital skills become a strategic common good.
