Operationalizing the Trusted AI Journey: Insights from KPMG’s AI Trust Deep Dive

Trust is no longer just a feature of Artificial Intelligence—it is the foundation. As organizations race to adopt Generative AI and automate decision-making, the gap between technical innovation and regulatory compliance is widening.

Recently, Anna Felländer, Co-founder of Asenion and President of Asenion Europe, joined KPMG Sweden for an exclusive "AI Trust Deep Dive." Together, they explored how organizations can move beyond theoretical frameworks to operationalize their trusted AI journey and ensure compliance with the EU AI Act.

The Shift: From Reactive Governance to Proactive Intelligence

During the event, industry leaders explored KPMG’s Trusted AI Framework, which supports the full AI lifecycle from vision to deployment. The consensus was clear: when AI trust is embedded across the organization, it transforms risk into a competitive advantage.

Key takeaways from the session included:

• Automated Risk Management: By utilizing AI-driven processes, risk management becomes more effective, significantly reducing the overall cost of compliance.
• Proactive Governance: Organizations are shifting away from reactive measures. Even in complex regulatory environments, governance must be proactive to ensure safety and reliability.
• Transparency as a Pillar: Accountability and transparency are essential to strengthening trust in how AI-enabled decisions are made.

As stated during the event discussions, "With the right strategy, governance, and ethical commitment in place, AI can become a powerful enabler of growth, innovation, and long-term confidence".
