AI and Data Forum: Building trustworthy AI on strong data foundations

Hi all,

Sharing a message from the European Medicines Regulatory Network on the AI and Data forum.

Kind regards,
Luis


Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to inform you that the HMA/EMA multistakeholder AI and Data forum: Build trustworthy AI on strong data foundations will take place on 12-13 November 2026.

The event will be held in a hybrid format, with in-person attendance (by invitation only) and online participation available.

This event - coordinated by the Network Data Steering Group in collaboration with the CHMP Methodology Working Party and the ACT EU initiative – offers a valuable opportunity to engage with regulators and stakeholders from across the EU network, sharing progress updates and insights on data and artificial intelligence (AI) related activities.

The event will aim to:

  • Showcase state-of-the-art AI and data applications across the medicines’ lifecycle,
  • Discuss the evolving EU regulatory landscape for data and AI,
  • Hear from stakeholders on data foundations, governance, quality, and interoperability across the Network,
  • Strengthen stakeholder collaboration to accelerate the adoption of trustworthy AI,
  • Input to the NDSG workplan 2026-2028 in alignment with the European medicines agencies network strategy 2028.

We will follow up in the autumn with more details, including the event programme and registration information, which will be shared via updates to the event page (linked above).

With kind regards,

Forum organisers
