AI Safety Day Sweden 2026
AI Safety Day Sweden 2026 Sweden is strong at adopting AI, but it is lacking when it comes to safety efforts: there is no AI Security Institute (AISI), no established talent pipeline, and no regular forum for decision-makers and civil society in which to convene. Some initiatives exist, but few people know about them. We want to change this with Sweden's First AI Safety Day. This event brings together organisations, policy makers, researchers, and curious individuals. Alongside the talks, there will be matchmaking: getting to know each other's work and finding ways to join in. What we want to achieve Connect organisations and give existing initiatives a stage Match people with organisations and bring new co-founders together to start more Share tested approaches to starting an AISI, building a talent pipeline, and launching an organisation Give policymakers a direct way to meet the people already working on this Launch an open letter supporting a Swedish AISI Focus areas Technical: strategic resilience, including continuity of access to foreign frontier models and compute, domestic fallback capabilities and Nordic cooperation Governance: what a Swedish AISI should do, and how labour-market and welfare institutions can prepare for a range of AI outcomes Talent pipeline: what careers exist in the field and how we could funnel Sweden's talent into AI safety careers International collaboration: lessons from AISIs, and field-building organisations abroad Organised by: Premiss Supported by: Singapore AI Safety Hub Global Policy Research Group Simon Institute for Longterm Governance RegleraAI.nu PauseAI Sweden AI Safety Sweden Hosted by: Emerge Lakefront Program: 12:00 – Doors open & coffee 13:00–13:10 – Welcome Remarks 13:10–13:30 – Current AI Safety Incidents Talk by Johan Falk 13:30–14:30 – International Collaboration: Comparing Approaches Around the World Panel discussion with Vivian Leung, Jonathan Salter, Henry Davidson and Bahadir Sirin 14:30–15:30 – Matchmaking
