KPMG Ireland has launched a new EU AI Hub to support clients using new artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and to navigate incoming regulation in the EU and globally.

The facility will lead to the creation of 200 new jobs and will be located in the firm's Platform X Global Innovation Hub in Dublin’s IFSC.

The new roles will be filled over the next three years in the areas of AI, risk, regulatory services and cyber security.

Supported by Microsoft and AI security and trust software firm Cranium, the EU AI Hub is designed to provide KPMG clients with access to tools and insights to navigate the complexities of AI implementation including the impending EU AI Act.

"The EU AI Hub brings together top minds and cutting-edge technology in a collaborative environment and is uniquely positioned to support businesses in optimising AI solutions," said Sean Redmond, Director, KPMG.

"It is also important that organisations don’t see the impending EU AI Act as a blocker to innovation and ideation, but instead it provides the guardrails that enable organisations to experiment with AI and deliver value to their businesses and customers," Mr Redmond said.
