Luxembourg's National Research and Innovation Strategy positions artificial intelligence (AI) as a key enabling technology across its research priorities. The strategy aims to scale AI for specific use cases, such as personalized healthcare and education, and to establish Luxembourg as a "living laboratory" demonstrating the societal benefits of AI at the national level.

Initiative overview
Luxembourg's National Research and Innovation Strategy, approved in December 2019, outlines the country's vision for its scientific ecosystem over the next decade. AI is identified as a transversal and interdisciplinary priority, integrated into the four main research areas:
- Personalized Healthcare: Leveraging AI to enhance medical treatments tailored to individual patients.
- Personalized Education: Utilizing AI to adapt educational experiences to the needs of each learner.
- Autonomous Mobility: Developing AI-driven transportation solutions.
- Financial Technology: Applying AI to innovate financial services.
The strategy envisions Luxembourg as a "living laboratory," where AI applications are tested and scaled in real-world settings, benefiting societal development. The country's small size is seen as an advantage, allowing for rapid implementation and international visibility as a frontrunner in AI deployment.
To support this vision, Luxembourg focuses on:
- AI Research and Innovation: Fostering cutting-edge AI research and facilitating innovation.
- Data Infrastructure: Building and managing large data lakes to support AI applications.
- Ethical and Legal Frameworks: Developing regulations that ensure responsible AI use.
