Background

The vision of the AI & Data program is to establish the Nordic region as world leading in digitalisation, ethical AI, and responsible use of data. In more specific terms, the aim is to support the development and deployment of ethical AI and responsible data solutions in Nordic companies through encouraging collaboration, knowledge transfer, competence building and data sharing in the Nordic region.
This report is part of a larger project, Nordic Ethical AI & Data Ecosystem Building, led by Accenture and Silo AI under the AI & Data program at Nordic Innovation. The goal of the project is to explore how Nordic datasets and capabilities in ethical AI and responsible use of data can contribute to the development of new innovative solutions in Nordic businesses.
The report has been written by Accenture on behalf of Nordic Innovation, and has been commissioned to evaluate the benefits of Nordic companies taking an ethical and responsible approach to AI and data. The main target groups of this report are Nordic businesses and decision-makers. More specifically, this report aims to answer the following questions:
What are the benefits of adopting an ethical and responsible approach to AI?

What does the regulatory landscape currently look like for AI?

What is the status of ethical and responsible AI in the Nordics today?

What is needed from businesses and decision-makers to accelerate adoption of ethical and responsible AI in the Nordics?
