Who Should Attend
This webcast series is aimed at regulatory affairs professionals and managers involved in regulatory operations, submissions, structured data or AI transformation. It is also relevant for professionals responsible for compliance, inspection readiness, quality interfaces or change management in regulated environments.
Participants are expected to have a solid understanding of EU regulatory procedures.
Objective of the Event
This webcast series provides an end-to-end overview of artificial intelligence in regulatory affairs. Across 5 modules, participants examine the legal and compliance framework for AI, inspection readiness, AI-supported regulatory writing and submissions, the role of structured data and agentic AI.
Each module focuses on a specific area of AI in the regulatory landscape. Together, the modules provide a structured overview of the opportunities, requirements and challenges involved in applying AI in regulatory affairs. They also offer practical perspectives on how to assess AI use cases and support their implementation in regulated environments.
