Using the European AI startup Viktor as an example, user kimmonismus highlighted a company founded locally in Europe by a former Meta team. Its "AI employee" product has integrated into Slack and Microsoft Teams, serving over 20,000 teams and competing globally without relocating outside Europe. Viktor's Series A funding round was led by Accel. The author cited this as one of the few solid cases proving Europe can build competitive AI products.
