Since February 2025, every deployer and provider of AI systems is legally required under the EU AI Act to be AI literate, that is, to understand the opportunities, risks, and responsible use of AI in their specific context. This goes beyond compliance checklists and requires a foundational understanding of how AI works, how to assess its impact, and how to deploy it responsibly.

For the MedTech sector, this obligation is even more complex due to the additional regulatory requirements of the MDR and IVDR.

This interactive seminar is designed to build AI literacy in the MedTech sector, with a strong focus on regulatory compliance, legal context, and practical application. Experts from industry, law, and AI development will walk you through the opportunities and risks of using AI in medical devices, in light of the EU AI Act and existing MDR/IVDR frameworks.

Whether you’re just starting or already working with AI systems, you’ll gain practical insights and learn from real cases and tools in use today.
