AI Pact Events

The AI Office hosts events within the AI Pact to engage the AI community, promote knowledge sharing, and best practices to foster trustworthy AI.

The AI Pact encourages organisations to prepare for the implementation of the AI Act. The events follow the Pact’s two-pillar structure:

Under Pillar I, regular webinars are held to provide participants with a better understanding of the AI Act and its implementation. A series of thematic monthly webinars, open to everyone, is foreseen from January 2025. Register to be notified of the seminars and activities of the AI Pact Pillar I.
Under Pillar II, workshops tailored to specific aspects of the AI Act provide a platform for participants to exchange best practices. These workshops are exclusive to AI Pact signatories.
