Every ministry holds a piece and none of them can see the whole.
NATIONS / SOLUTION
Build the trusted national data and AI grid.
Institutions hold data that would be worth more together, and they're right to be careful about sharing it. A grid makes sharing governed rather than informal.
The problem today
Sharing happens through spreadsheets and goodwill, or it doesn't happen.
AI capability gets rented from abroad, so the value and the control leave with it.
What the agent does
Classify
Data is tiered by sensitivity before anything is exchanged.
Govern
Policy decides who may access what, and every access is logged.
Serve
Shared model hosting and APIs institutions can build on.
Sustain
Usage funds operation, so the platform doesn't depend on the next grant.
What it touches
- Ministry systems
- Registries
- Model hosting
- Policy engine

Typically a public-private structure where government leads governance and private delivery carries build risk, with platform services generating revenue that covers operation over time.
A working pilot with one anchor ministry inside 90 days. National scale is a multi-year program, and it should be judged by what the pilot proved rather than by the roadmap.
