Responsible AI Summit Main Conference Day 1 - Monday 21 September

2:00 PM Decoding AI Assurance: ISO 42001, EN 18286, and AIUC-1

Three frameworks, three different jobs. ISO 42001 proves your AI governance is real. EN 18286 — approved this July as the EU AI Act's first harmonized standard — proves you meet Article 17. AIUC-1 proves your agents behave the way you say they do. As the first accredited body for both ISO 42001 and AIUC-1, we'll give a clear, practitioner-level map of how these frameworks relate, where they overlap, and how to match the right one — or combination — to the AI an organization is actually running.

  • What EN 18286's July 2026 approval means for EU AI Act conformity today.
  • Where ISO 42001, EN 18286, and AIUC-1 overlap — and where each one covers something the others don't.
  • A practical way to match assurance frameworks to an organization's actual risk profile.
