Foundation Forum 2021:
AI Security and Privacy
Join our virtual discussion on a regulatory framework for the further development of Artificial Intelligence
Join us on December 7 for an afternoon of discussions on the digital legislation to regulate emerging technologies like Artificial Intelligence. AI is a key driver for the digital transformation that all organizations are undertaking. AI increases productivity, powers the energy transformation and uncovers new business models. New regulations from the European Commission will offer AI developers, implementers and users with more clarity, ensuring a greater take-up of artificial intelligence across Europe.
At the Foundation Forum – AI Security & Privacy, experts from organizations such as CEPS, ETSI, Eclipse Foundation and Global Digital Foundation will moderate discussions with representatives from policy-makers, cybersecurity agencies, EU institutions, standards bodies, and the industry.
Join these interesting debates to learn from the experts about the advantages and pitfalls of Artificial Intelligence and come away with actionable insights on the security and privacy aspects of AI.
