Background: The Nordic Ethical AI Sandbox

The aim of the Nordic Ethical AI Sandbox is to help build knowledge and capability for Nordic companies on how to address some of the challenges within responsible AI. It is an opportunity for companies to work directly with responsible AI experts and members from the Nordic AI ecosystem. Besides four workshops, the Nordic Ethical AI Sandbox also includes seminars that are open to the entire Nordic AI ecosystem.

Insights and learnings from the four workshops will be summarized in a public case study and contribute to a Nordic Ethical AI Playbook that will be published in 2024.  

The Nordic Ethical AI Sandbox is a part of the Nordic Ethical AI and Ecosystem project which is developed in collaboration with Accenture and Silo AI and funded under the AI and Data program. The object of the AI and Data program is to make the Nordic region a front runner in digitalization, AI, and responsible use of data.
