On May 7, Mykolas Romeris university (MRU) will host an international conference “From Innovation to Regulation: Responsible AI in Europe.”

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming various areas of society, from law enforcement and healthcare to finance and digital identity. Alongside technological progress, important questions are emerging regarding accountability, legal frameworks, and public trust.

The conference will address a key question: how can Europe effectively harness the potential of AI while ensuring the protection of fundamental rights and maintaining public trust? The event will bring together researchers, experts, and practitioners to share insights and engage in discussions at the intersection of technology and law.

“Europe can become a leader in responsible artificial intelligence, but only if regulation is not merely a set of declarations, but a system that works in practice. Good principles alone are not enough, the law must keep pace with technological developments and be practically applicable,” says one of the organizers, Prof. Dr. Marius Laurinaitis, a researcher at the LegalTech Center of MRU.

The conference will focus on the use of biometric AI in public security, challenges of liability allocation in AI systems, regulatory issues in the healthcare sector, data protection and AI-generated personal data, new forms of digital identity, as well as the role of AI and blockchain in combating next-generation crime.

The conference will also feature a presentation titled “How Technology Has Changed Organized Crime” by Dr. Oleksiy Feshchenko, Member of the Scientific Council at the NGO “Ukrainian Modern Digital Science” (UMDS) and expert in virtual assets and financial investigations.

Participants are invited to register and actively contribute to discussions on the future of responsible AI in Europe.
