Accountability by Design: Turning AI Standards into Practice and Certification<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Exploring how the EU AI Act translates harmonized standards into real-world AI testing and certification. \nDiscover how the EU AI Act moves from regulatory text to technical implementation \u2014 and what this means for organisations developing and deploying AI systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This joint session brings together two complementary perspectives on AI accountability: applied AI assessment and certification from Fraunhofer IAIS, and European standardisation from CEN-CENELEC JTC 21. Dr. Maximilian Poretschkin and Dr. Sebastian Hallensleben will explore how the regulatory framework of the EU AI Act translates into technical practice \u2014 from testing and certification of AI systems to the development of harmonized standards that guide implementation across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The webinar highlights the interaction between those who develop the rules and those who must apply them in practice, with particular attention to the implications for SMEs and research institutions working with limited resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Date and Time\nWednesday, March 18th, 2026 | 16:30 \u2013 17:30 CET\nOnline | Free Registration\nREGISTRATION: https:\/\/forms.office.com\/e\/j0CUx4dTsM<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This webinar is organized by the Slovak National Supercomputing Centre (NCC Slovakia) as part of the EuroCC project (National Competence Centre \u2013 NCC Slovakia).\nThis session continues the AI Accountability Dialogue Series \u2013 \u201cWho Is Responsible for AI in Europe?\u201d, a series exploring how responsibility for artificial intelligence is defined and implemented across ethical, legal, and technical domains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The webinar will be held in English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0The EU AI Act establishes a comprehensive regulatory framework for artificial intelligence in Europe, but how do its requirements translate into technical reality?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This joint session presents two complementary perspectives on AI accountability. Dr. Maximilian Poretschkin (Fraunhofer IAIS) draws on his experience leading the ZERTIFIZIERTE KI project to discuss the current state of AI assessments \u2014 how organizations and AI systems can be evaluated against legal and technical requirements, and what practical certification processes look like today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Sebastian Hallensleben (CEN-CENELEC JTC 21) provides the perspective of European standardization, explaining how harmonized standards supporting the AI Act are being developed and how they guide the technical implementation of regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together, the speakers explore the interaction between rule-making and practical implementation \u2014 and what this means for organisations navigating AI compliance, technical verification, and trust in AI systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Maximilian Poretschkin is Head of Department AI Assurance and Assessment (AAA) at Fraunhofer IAIS in Sankt Augustin, Germany. His work focuses on the testing, evaluation, and certification of trustworthy AI systems. He leads the \u201cZERTIFIZIERTE KI\u201d project, which develops testing methodologies, assessment tools, and certification approaches for artificial intelligence and transfers the results obtained in AI standardization. With a background in physics and experience in both research and industry consulting, his current work focuses on practical methods for evaluating AI systems, forensic analysis of AI behaviour, and compliance strategies for advanced AI systems such as large language models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Sebastian Hallensleben is Chair of the CEN-CENELEC JTC 21 technical committee on Artificial Intelligence and Chief Trust Officer at Resaro Europe. His work focuses on digital trust, AI governance, and the development of harmonized standards supporting the implementation of the EU AI Act across Europe. In addition to his European standardization work, he contributes to international initiatives on AI risk and accountability, including co-chairing the OECD working group on AI risk and accountability. His work focuses on translating ethical and regulatory principles into measurable technical standards for trustworthy AI systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
