Dmitry Shubov Consulting released a briefing to help Southeast Asian startups navigate emerging 'Digital Borders' caused by countries adopting sovereign AI platforms. With Gartner predicting 35% of nations will use region-specific AI by 2027, SEA founders need transparent, portable AI models that meet US data and compliance standards. This shift demands startups treat regulatory readiness as a key feature to attract US institutional buyers and investors. Consulting support is available to prepare startups for these new market and governance challenges.
