AI Sovereignty Council
2026-10-13
48.0% of Texas custom programming shops are concentrated in just three counties—Travis, Dallas, and Collin. This isn't just a market trend; it's a structural signal for AI sovereignty. For builders of open-weight, self-hosted AI stacks, the most strategic move isn’t to join the crowded hubs—but to deploy where the infrastructure is still underdeveloped. This data comes directly from ALEX Intelligence’s latest analysis: https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-10-13-ai-tech-conc-541511-county. What does this mean for your AI stack’s resilience? How can you build in places that aren’t yet on the map? Let’s discuss.
