The AI4People Summit is scheduled for December 2nd and 3rd 2025 as a virtual event. Organized by the AI4People Institute together with Atomium – European Institute for Science and Democracy the Summit aims to advance concrete discourse and drive actionable progress in artificial intelligence (AI) governance and regulation, embedding ethics at the core of responsible AI innovation and development.

Building upon the insights from the Paris AI Action Summit, the Summit will convene key stakeholders to facilitate cross-communication and collaboration aimed at achieving tangible and real-world outcomes. While AI innovation is essential, it must be accompanied by robust governance and clear technical standards to support human flourishing. In line with this vision, the summit moves beyond compliance and champions a future where rigorous risk management, fundamental rights impact assessments, human oversight, and proactive measures in cybersecurity and environmental sustainability are central to every breakthrough, ensuring that ethical oversight is an integral part of AI’s evolution.

Ultimately, AI should remain a tool for human empowerment, promoting self-determination and societal well-being.

A key highlight of the event is the presentation of the AI4People Institute’s Report on a Proportional Approach to Ethical AI Requirements. This report presents a comprehensive framework that reimagines ethics as the core driver of AI development. It addresses the challenges posed by general purpose AI models while emphasizing transparency, explainability, and inclusivity— setting a new benchmark for responsible,
innovative, and sustainable AI.
