Sovereign AI servers for Lisbon
Lisbon is a transatlantic cable landing point and one of Europe's fastest-growing tech and datacenter scenes. VANAFTER delivers your own 8-GPU AI servers, hosted locally in the EU and GDPR-native - the sovereign alternative to US hyperscalers.
Inside Lisbon's digital landscape
Lisbon has become one of Europe's fastest-growing tech scenes, helped along by a wave of international founders, the Web Summit's move to the city, and its role as a transatlantic subsea cable landing point. That combination - inbound talent and serious connectivity - has turned the Portuguese capital into a genuine startup and datacenter destination.
Who we work with in Lisbon
We support Lisbon's startups, e-commerce platforms and customer-operations centres with AI compute they own - predictable cost, full control, and data kept under EU law instead of crossing to a US cloud.

Hosted in the EU, close to Lisbon
We run your server in Munich, Germany - built in the EU, operated in the EU and governed by EU law alone. For teams in Lisbon that means low latency and a short, predictable network path, without your prompts or training data ever leaving the EU. You buy the hardware; we handle power, cooling, connectivity and 24/7 operations.
Compliant for Portugal
VANAFTER is GDPR-native and built for the EU AI Act. For organisations in Portugal answering to the CNPD, that's the point: your workloads run on hardware owned by an EU company and operated in the EU - no US CLOUD Act, no third-country transfer, no Schrems II risk. There is simply no data exporter and no third-country importer.
