LLMs4EU

The LLMs4EU project addresses the risk of European languages being marginalised in generative AI due to a lack of training resources. By bringing together Europe's leading AI experts from industry and academia, the project aims to preserve linguistic and cultural diversity, while enabling European SMEs to compete globally.
‍
The initiative provides LLMs and associated tools as open data for all EU languages, leveraging existing European programmes and expertise to develop extensive multilingual resources that promote the continent's digital sovereignty and economic competitiveness.

As a French leader in large language model technology, LightOn is bringing its cutting-edge expertise in developing and deploying advanced generative AI solutions to the LLMs4EU consortium. We support the project's mission to deliver open, accessible and compliant language models and tools that will enable European companies, particularly SMEs, to compete globally while preserving linguistic and cultural diversity.

The LLMs4EU project focuses on the following five application domains: energy, telecommunications, tourism, public services and science. The tools that will be made accessible to European companies will cover every step, from training LLMs to deploying fully compliant, LLM-based solutions.
