Developing an artificial intelligence solution is only part of the process. For companies and institutions to put these solutions into practice, they need technical resources, regulatory compliance, and appropriate security measures. These challenges were among the main topics discussed at INNOPRO 2026, an event attended by the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics – ICI Bucharest.
The use of artificial intelligence in healthcare, patient data protection, and the integration of new technologies into medical practice were among the topics discussed at BEHEALTH 2026.

Access to advanced digital infrastructure, skilled professionals, and trusted partnerships is essential for organizations seeking to adopt advanced technologies. Cooperation between Romania and Japan can help address these challenges through joint research projects, the testing of artificial intelligence solutions, and technology transfer to industry.
Protecting critical infrastructure is no longer just about preventing cyberattacks, but also about ensuring that essential services remain operational when incidents occur. The role of blockchain and artificial intelligence in managing these risks was among the topics presented by the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics – ICI Bucharest at the international CIPRE Europe 2026 conference, held from 20 to 22 October in Brussels
Access to high-performance computing resources and technical expertise are among the challenges faced by organisations developing or using artificial intelligence solutions. Through its participation in the European BSC AI Factory project, the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics – ICI Bucharest helps facilitate access to supercomputing infrastructure and specialised services for startups, SMEs and research organisations.
