Trustworthy AI Forum: Growth. Competitiveness. Sovereignty.

Forum on trustworthy AI, digital sovereignty, and European competitiveness.

The Trustworthy AI Forum will take place on July 8, 2026 at the Tagesspiegel headquarters in Berlin and will also be streamed online. The event brings together experts and decision-makers from politics, business, and civil society to discuss how artificial intelligence can be deployed securely, independently, and successfully.

The forum focuses on three central topics: cloud infrastructure as the foundation for sovereign AI, current and upcoming EU regulation, and the role of comprehensive AI integration in strengthening Europe’s competitiveness. Discussions will explore how AI can create measurable value without compromising control, data security, or technological independence.

The program combines political and business perspectives, best practices, and opportunities for personal exchange. Announced participants include Marco-Alexander Breit, Thomas Jarzombek, and Rebecca Lenhard, with Federal Network Agency Vice President Dr. Daniela Brönstrup also invited. A get-together will follow the main program.
