Great to be back at the #EUCyberActs Conference, where TIC Council had the opportunity to highlight the critical role of cybersecurity in shaping a competitive and secure digital future. On Day 1, Ángel Moreno Rubio, Digital Policy Manager at TIC Council, joined an insightful panel on the interplay between EU cybersecurity legislation. With the EU setting a global benchmark in digital regulation, Ángel highlighted the need for seamless implementation and enforcement. The TIC sector is ready to support this by ensuring trust-by-design across the entire product lifecycle—from design and manufacturing to market access and deployment. On Day 2, Jorge Wallace Ruiz, Cybersecurity Technical Leader at DEKRA, shared insights from TIC Council’s Cybersecurity Hackathons, where experts from around the world collaborated on testing the requirements of ETSI EN 303 645. If you missed it, don’t forget to check out our white paper on the hackathon results: https://lnkd.in/d35VsMdx. A big thank you to the organisers for an excellent conference!

A big thank you to our members, BSI, The Alan Turing Institute, and the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), for hosting the AI Standards Hub Global Summit in London! As AI continues to reshape industries and societies, well-defined standards are essential for fostering responsible, safe, and innovative development that benefits everyone. By leveraging consensus-based standards, certified third-party testing, and appropriate accreditation, we can create a robust foundation for AI governance. This is one of the key reasons why the AIQI Consortium was founded—to bring together organisations from the Quality Infrastructure (QI) ecosystem to promote open dialogue and collaboration. It was also fantastic to see some of our members at the event. We look forward to driving these important conversations forward and shaping the future of AI standards together!
