Digital Responsibility Forum

Why Digital Responsibility?

Regulatory Compliance

We understand GDPR, yet the arrival of the EU, US, UK and Chinese AI & Digital Regulations, in addition to those that will cover environmental impact, means that organisations will have to be clearer than ever on how they ensure ethics and compliance, and thereby protect brand reputation.

Unlocking Innovation

Every organisation should now be looking at how to best utilise AI and Generative AI to accelerate and augment their Operating Model, functions and processes.

You need ethics and compliance embedded into your programmes to enable effective innovation.

Unlocking Investment

For AI or Generative AI product organisations, you will need to ensure that you have a verified compliance statement around the use of AI in respect of the regulation.

We can provide you with Governance and Controls to ensure your continued access to market and investment.

Frequently asked questions

Please email us if you cannot find an answer to your question.

It's called a forum. Do you just talk or do you provide services?

The Forum was named by the group when it was discussing Digital Responsibility and Ethics back in 2021.

In this relaunch in 2023, the primary role of the group is to collaborate on thought leadership and/or provide fractional consultancy advice and guidance to help drive innovation using AI and Digital technologies in safe and impactful ways.

Whatever the professions of the group (academic, legal, technological, storytelling), all are engaged currently in Digital and AI Responsibility and Ethics work today.

How can the community engage with you?

The Digital Responsibility Forum (DRF) is a virtual community of experts who have a common interest, passion and expertise in AI and Digital Ethics, innovation and governance.

The DRF can be engaged individually or collectively through Digital Responsibility Limited, home of the International CDR Manifesto.

The members of the DRF can be engaged individually through members' own businesses.

How does the DRF collaborate?

Any package of work (academic, commercial or otherwise) is shared with the members of the DRF to check on interest, availability and terms of contribution. Members are then able to offer their expertise on a commercial or voluntary basis dependent on the need.

We also have a quarterly meeting to enable all members of the DRF to keep current with activities and ongoing thought leadership.
