BSA on the AI Continent Action Plan
Dods EU
The Business Software Alliance responded to the European Commission’s AI Continent Action, calling it an important shift to help Europe lead in developing artificial intelligence, not just regulating it. However, BSA has concerns about the plan’s strong emphasis on digital sovereignty.
“The AI Continent plan can help to both build trust in AI and better equip European businesses to utilize AI in real-world contexts,” said Thomas Boué, Director General, EMEA at BSA. “The Commission is backing this plan with political will, financial investment and a clear signal that it is ready to listen. Simplification matters — not just as a message, but as a strategy. If the plan delivers on its promise of clarity, capacity, and support, it will make a real difference to the companies building and deploying AI across Europe.”
BSA is concerned that a narrow interpretation of sovereignty could limit Europe’s access to global innovation.
