Coordinated Plan on AI

• Maximise InvestmentsNational AI strategiesPaving the way to new PPP on AI

• Create European Data Space• Nurture talent, skills and life-long

learning• Making PAs frontrunners in AI• Develop ethical & trustworthy AI

On 10 April 2018 25 European countries and Norway signed a

Declaration of Cooperation on Artificial Intelligence

The initiative has been joined by all 28 Member States and Norway

THE FUTURE PPP ON AI, DATA AND ROBOTICS

• Building on the Robotics and big data PPPs

• Expanding to other involved parties

• Set up a Leaders' Group representing the stakeholders at C-level from industry and research institutes
