The EDIH Summit 2026 brings together the full European Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIH) network, EU institutions, Member States, AI infrastructures and innovation actors to examine how Europe’s AI ecosystem functions in practice. Sessions will explore how EDIHs connect organisations with other actors of the EU AI innovation ecosystem such as AI Factories, Testing and Experimentation Facilities (TEFs) and regulatory sandboxes; how common tools and assessment frameworks support this work; and how proven approaches can be scaled across regions and sectors.
The Open Source Observatory (OSOR) is organising a workshop dedicated to exploring the role of open source AI in the public sector.
How do citizens perceive the use of AI in government? While AI has the potential to improve efficiency and service quality, it may also influence public trust—either strengthening it through better performance or undermining it if it is perceived as unfair or inappropriate. How these systems should be designed and deployed in ways that align with citizens’ expectations, feelings, and needs remains an open question. Emerging evidence is beginning to shed light on these dynamics, yet the topic remains under-discussed in current policy debates.
Generative AI is rapidly reshaping government operations, with public employees increasingly relying on commercial tools - often in informal or “shadow” modes that are difficult to monitor and govern. At the same time, administrations are beginning to experiment with governance approaches, including secure-by-design environments, guidelines, and training initiatives, although these efforts remain fragmented. Tensions between innovation, control, and safety are emerging, and the optimal balance between these dimensions is still to be defined.

The forum is an open space for discussing the challenges of the digital environment in a clear and accessible way, bringing together public authorities, experts, civil society, and innovation actors to reflect on digital rights and democratic digital transformation.
The Living-in.EU initiative will be featured at the ISPIM Innovation Conference 2026, taking place from 7–10 June 2026 in Granada. Organised under the theme “Connecting for Innovation”, the conference brings together innovation professionals from academia, industry, consultancy, and the public sector to exchange experiences and explore collaborative approaches to innovation.
