The conference was organized in collaboration with the Nordic Council of Ministers, Digital Dogme, and DI – Digital.

No less than 5 ministers, 75 business leaders, and experts from 9 different countries gathered for a full-day conference at Christiansborg, focusing on how to secure a leading position for the Nordic and Baltic regions in the use of artificial intelligence.

With the region’s deeply rooted democratic and liberal values, combined with open and robust welfare systems, there was a consensus that there is a unique foundation for leading an AI transformation. Among the challenges discussed, the need to maintain a high level of trust between citizens, businesses, and public institutions when applying AI was highlighted, as well as the importance of increased investments in the education of a skilled workforce capable of utilizing the new technologies.
