Initiative overview
The regulatory sandbox is part of the realisation of the national AI strategy for Norway.The initiative has the following objectives:- Enterprises can gain a better understanding of the regulatory requirements placed on data protection and reduce the time from development and testing to actually rolling out AI solutions to the market. Systems that are rolled out after being developed in the sandbox can serve as leading examples, and can help other enterprises that are interested in developing similar systems.- The authorities can gain a better understanding of new technological solutions and more easily identify potential risks and problems at an early stage so that guidance material can be produced to clarify how the regulations should be applied.- The authorities and industries can identify sectors with a need for their own industry standards.- Individuals and society as a whole will benefit from new and innovative solutions being developed within responsible parameters.
