Insights
What Leif says about…
… his passion
I love a good challenge. Otherwise I probably wouldn't have gone into AI. People say it's not possible to combine great AI technology with efficiency and privacy... well, bring it on!
… why he started Xayn
I’ve been honored to walk the hallowed halls of Oxford and listen to the brightest minds envisioning the future. This sparked the light in me to help build the future — and what better way to do that than by tackling some of the most pressing challenges of our time: AI, privacy and climate action.
… the future of AI
The future of AI won't be decided tomorrow. It will be decided today. And we're here to make sure Europe plays a decisive role.
