Description

AI governance moves fast, and the EU AI Act has changed the operating environment for any organisation deploying high-risk AI.

I help executive teams, public bodies, and consulting firms turn that regulatory pressure into operational clarity with practical, audit-ready frameworks rather than policy documents that sit on a shelf.

I'm Mulya van Roon, founder of The Responsible AI Center and AI Governance Lead at AI & Partners, with concurrent appointment to the European Commission's Apply AI Alliance. I'm an IAPP Trained AI Governance Professional (AIGP) and a member of the International Association for Safe and Ethical AI (IASEAI).

What makes my advisory distinctive is the operational depth behind the governance work: roughly twenty years of enterprise leadership at Microsoft, IBM/Kyndryl, and KPMG before specialising in AI governance. I know what large organisations actually do with technology, not just what compliance requires.

Typical engagements:

- EU AI Act readiness assessments and gap analyses (Articles 4, 14, 26)

- Human oversight design and the HOCS (Human Oversight Capacity Standard) framework

- AI governance maturity benchmarking and remediation roadmaps

- Executive advisory and interim leadership on responsible AI

- Briefings for strategy consultancies and PE sponsors on EU AI policy

Based in Brussels.
