Iris.ai joins a new alliance to accelerate AI in the Nordics
The Nordic AI Alliance is made up by leading Nordic companies, all working with AI, and create stronger collaboration structures between the Nordic countries. The members of the Nordic AI Alliance pledge to help facilitate this acceleration, by helping other companies and organizations in the Nordic countries come in contact with the best expertise to help them throughout their AI journey.
“Openness and transparency are going to be vital to the safe and sane application of AI to real and important problems. We cannot sit on our individual and fairly arbitrary patches of land and pretend the rest of the world does not exist. What we have in the Nordic region is a sense of trust and fairness which are core drivers for openness and transparency – these values seep through our company culture and we’re looking forward to sharing and learning from each other.”
– Anita Schjøll Brede, CEO & co-founder, Iris.ai
Background
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already being used to solve some of the world’s biggest challenges and is being put at the core of change by organizations and countries around the world at an increasing pace.
The Nordic countries have strong regional values ensuring that everyone in society benefits from advancement in technology and research.
To remain competitive the Nordic Countries need to increase the pace at which they adopt AI technology at the core of business and infrastructure.
