Government aims to make Catalonia an AI hub in Europe

The government is preparing a strategic plan for the area of artificial intelligence (AI) to attract investment and EU funding, and to help Catalonia "face the challenges" AI will bring with it in the future, according to digital policy minister, Jordi Puigneró.

"We want Catalonia to become a hub for artificial intelligence in Europe," the minister told the Catalan News Agency (ACN).

While there is still no date for when the plan will be presented, its development will include contributions from the public and private sectors, as well as from research institutions and universities.
