BANJUL, The Gambia & SINGAPORE – May 24, 2026 — LingoAI Foundation Pte Ltd (“LingoAI”), a leader in Sovereign AI & Data solutions, and Jokkolabs Banjul, a pioneer in open innovation and social enterprise in West Africa, today announced the signing of a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). The landmark partnership establishes a collaborative framework aimed at advancing AI readiness, developing local language datasets, and fostering applied AI innovation across The Gambia.

At the singularity moment where Artificial Intelligence evolves into autonomous Agents, humanity faces an unprecedented gambit for power and survival. Recently, a high-level summit titled "OpenClaw & Local LLMs: Navigating Data Sovereignty and Agent Networks" concluded in Singapore. The event was co-hosted by LingoAI, the Singapore Internet Governance Forum (SGIGF), and Qwen. The summit brought together top experts from AI Singapore, the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Qwen, and LingoAI. Their collective wisdom pointed to a singular conclusion: the AI endgame will be decided not by the scale of computing power, but by where the "Claws" of the AI Agent—symbolized by the "OpenClaw" lobster—are pointed.

LingoAI is proud to host a high-level AI event “From 🦞 OpenClaw + Local LLM to data sovereignty and Agent Networks” tomorrow in Singapore with Singapore Internet Governance Forum (SGIGF) , Innovation Incubator, and Qwen as Cohosts. The event will dive deep into AI Agent, Open Source LLM, Sea Lion, Moltbook, Ontology, Cultures & Languages in AI, Healthcare Data Infra, and AI Governance.

LingoAI is building a decentralized global data network designed to power the next generation of AI systems. Through a distributed infrastructure of contributors, devices, and communities, LingoAI enables the collection, validation, and utilization of multilingual data at global scale.
