EU AI Act in Focus: Launching Compliant Projects

EU AI Act in Focus: Launching Compliant Projects

In collaboration with German-Swedish Chamber of Commerce

5 March 2025, Valhallavägen 185, Stockholm

On March 5, experts from Detecon, Hopsworks, and POSSER SPIETH WOLFERS & PARTNERS met up in Stockholm to break down the complexities of the EU AI Act-bringing practical insights on governance, compliance, and business impact.

🔹 Keynote Takeaways:

  • AI Governance & Compliance Roadmap: Implementing the AI Act requires clear guidelines, expertise, and governance structures. Companies must align AI strategies with regulatory requirements while mitigating risks.
  • Bridging Regulation & Practical ImplementationEnsuring data sovereignty, transparency, and continuous auditing is critical for compliance. Using open standards and existing ML frameworks can streamline adoption.
  • From Compliance Burden to Business EnablerThe AI Act is not just about restrictions-It also provides a framework for innovation. AI literacy is key, ensuring teams understand risks, obligations, and business potential.

🔹 Panel Discussion: Breaking Organisational Silos
One of the biggest challenges? The lack of communication between developers, compliance teams, and management. Effective implementation of the AI Act demands cross-departmental collaboration-breaking down silos to align technical, legal, and business perspectives.

This event was a step towards navigating AI compliance with confidence. A huge thank you to the German-Swedish Chamber of Commerceespecially Alina Krintovski and Aino Weber, for co-organising this with us. We also extend our gratitude to our speakers Isabell Neubert, Dr Frederic Geber, Karl Sjöborg, and Dr Marc Karahan.
