Taiwan AI Labs Recognized as a Trusted AI Partner Aligned with EU Regulations; Launches First National-Level Federated Learning Collaboration Between Taiwan and Europe
[Taipei, May 15, 2025] Taiwan AI Labs was recently recognized as a Gold Partner at Machine Learning Prague 2025, one of Europe’s most influential applied AI conferences, held from April 28 to 30 at the O2 Universum in Prague, Czech Republic. The Lab was formally recommended by the Czech National AI Hub as a trusted international partner, with its technological direction aligned with the EU’s Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
The event gathered thousands of data scientists, engineers, and industry leaders worldwide to explore practical applications of AI and discuss key challenges. This year’s agenda spotlighted AI in healthcare and finance, information security, and the advancement of trustworthy AI technologies.
Machine Learning Prague introduced Taiwan AI Labs as Asia’s first open AI research institute, noting its deep alignment with the EU’s core AI values. The Lab’s work reflects a shared vision in four key areas:
- Federated Learning & Data Privacy
Enabling AI training across decentralized data without exposing sensitive personal information. - Healthcare AI & Ethical Governance
Developing clinically validated, explainable systems under ethical oversight. - Civic Tech & Misinformation Resilience
Creating tools to counter disinformation and strengthen democratic institutions. - Transparency & Open Innovation
Publishing research outcomes, promoting open-source models, and embedding accountability mechanisms.
In response to the global momentum around digital rights and data protection, Taiwan AI Labs developed FedGPT—a platform that integrates federated learning with generative AI. Designed to meet stringent privacy and compliance standards, FedGPT allows institutions to train AI models internally without transferring sensitive data to external clouds or third parties. Its architecture supports cross-institutional and cross-border collaboration, making it ideal for sectors such as healthcare, finance, and public administration.
Ethan Tu, Founder of Taiwan AI Labs, remarked:“Trustworthy technology is Taiwan’s strength. In today’s landscape, regulatory compliance is not a burden—it’s a prerequisite for participating in the global AI ecosystem.”
Following its participation in the AI Action Summit in France last year, Taiwan AI Labs has now been invited by the Czech Ministry of Health and national medical institutions to co-launch a collaborative initiative on federated learning and generative AI. This joint effort will support the Czech healthcare system in adopting AI solutions that prioritize privacy and ethics—marking a significant step in Taiwan’s AI technology being applied in real-world European contexts.
Tu added,“Every industry, everywhere, will need trusted AI solutions. Taiwan’s native approach—rooted in responsibility, compliance, and control—aims to be a reliable choice for our global partners.”
