Artificial intelligence development and governance in Spain
Overview
Spain is preparing to host significant artificial intelligence events, including the V European Forum on Artificial Intelligence in Alicante and the CAEPIA 2026 conference at the University of Jaén. These gatherings aim to address the impact of AI on science, the economy, and society, with a specific focus on ethical and strategic debates and quantum AI.
In parallel, regional leaders from Andalusia, Catalonia, the Canary Islands, and the Basque Country have met in Bilbao to discuss integrating AI into public administration. Discussions centered on the launch of the Future Government Center and the necessity of human oversight, transparency, and ethical frameworks. Regional presidents emphasized the importance of ‘digital self-government’ to maintain control over data and ensuring that AI governance serves the general interest. Additionally, efforts are being directed toward coordinating digital transformation through dedicated ministries and addressing job security through professional adaptation.
