The EC requested the drafting of standards to implement the AI act. The standards are being developed by CEN-CENELEC JTC 21. But what is the content of these AI standards and when do we expect the AI standards to be ready? What role can civil society still play in this process?

Please join us under the moderation of Chiara Giovannini, ANEC Deputy Director General, and following an introduction by Alexandra Toth, Programme Manager at the European AI & Society Fund, to answer this in the company of our speakers:

  • Dr. Sebastian Hallensleben, Chair of CEN-CENELEC JTC 21 where European AI standards are being developed and
  • Pete Eisenegger, ANEC AI expert in CEN-CLC JTC21 WG4 and WG1 (Strategic Advisory Group & Technical Coherence Forum)

During this informative and interactive session, we will discuss the state of play of the AI standards and the next steps in their approval process. You will also discover how to best influence AI standards to deliver good outcomes for civil society.

This session is organised by ANEC with the kind support of the European AI & Society Fund.
