Soulaima Gourani

As co-founder of Happioh and Ailo, I'm pioneering the future of AI across two critical frontiers. At Happioh, we're building the essential management layer for AI employees, the platform organizations need to train, deploy, and govern their rapidly growing AI workforce.

At Ailo, we're addressing the foundational infrastructure challenge by designing, financing, and operating sustainable, sovereign AI factories, next-generation data centers powered by renewable energy that provide scalable GPU computing solutions from single rack to dedicated buildings.

Through our €500M AILO FUND I (under regulatory incorporation in Luxembourg), we're helping bridge Europe's critical compute gap by investing in AI-centric infrastructure, hardware, and software companies with a strong EU focus.

Together, these ventures represent my commitment to building both the computational foundation and management systems needed for responsible AI advancement.

I serve on influential boards including:

• World Economic Forum's Global Future Council on Faith In Action
• Aventures Fund (VC)
• Investment Growth Forum ($50M micro community fund)

Recognition includes:

• World Economic Forum Young Global Leader
• Thinkers50 and Nordic Thinkers 20
• "40 under 40" Europe
• Top 100 Women in Tech
• Global Entrepreneur of the Year (Tech) nominee, 2025
• 100 Reputable Women of African Descent nominee, 2025

I've complemented real-world education with executive training from Harvard, Wharton, Yale, NTU, INCAE, HKUST, and Cambridge, while lecturing at Stanford, HKS, LBS, HULT, ISB and many more.
