**What it does not test.** It does not establish majority European ownership: most of the round's other backers, including Nvidia and Silicon Valley VC firms, remain non European.

**How this item counts.** No movement: no answer to who owns, who operates, whose law governs or who made the parts changes. Weight 0\. Funding round only; ownership stays mixed with Nvidia/US VCs, no question moves. [European Sovereignty Index](https://sovereigntymonitor.eu/sovereignty-index/)
