Dassault Systèmes Signs AI Pact for Europe

Dassault Systèmes signed the AI Pact, a European Commission initiative to support organizations in usingf AI, in the wake of issuance of Europe’s new AI Act.

Dassault Systèmes aims to play a proactive role in how AI is used for driving innovation in industry, benefiting citizens, patients and consumers.

Dassault Systèmes has signed the AI Pact, a new initiative from the European Commission to establish best practices and minimize risks associated with use of artificial intelligence in Europe, and help industry create value. 

The AI Pact was created by the European Commission to encourage and support organizations to plan ahead for the implementation of measures required by the AI Act, which took effect August 1, 2024. The AI Act aims to drive the transparent and regulated use of AI applications in Europe, in particular in high-risk use cases that may impact the safety and rights of citizens.

Companies that join the AI Pact commit to take concrete actions including adopting an AI governance strategy for use of AI within their company, creating a map of trustworthy AI systems they deploy in high-risk sectors, and training employees on using AI responsibly.

“For 40 years, we’ve worked with our customers to create a scientific representation of the world that combines AI, modeling and simulation in virtual twin experiences. This has driven major advancements in sustainable industrial innovation while protecting our customers’ most powerful competitive asset: their IP,” says Pascal Daloz, CEO, Dassault Systèmes. “By joining the AI Pact, we pledge to be a driving force in the responsible use of AI to open up innovative opportunities in the generative economy. As a trusted partner of equally committed companies, we will spearhead a collective effort to ensure that AI in Europe benefits citizens, patients and consumers.”
