Join Us in Athens at Data Week 2025!
Date: May 28, 2025
Location: Athens, Greece
Language: English
Part of: Data Week 2025 – “Odyssey of AI: Navigating the Data Seas”

As artificial intelligence continues to transform industries and societies, one concept has taken center stage: synthetic data. With its potential to reshape the future of AI development, training, and testing, synthetic data is no longer just a technical curiosity—it’s a strategic necessity.
This is why HELEN – Horizon Europe Legal and Ethics Network is proud to organize a dedicated workshop on synthetic data, exploring its legal, ethical, and technical dimensions, as part of Data Week 2025.
Why This Workshop Matters
Real-world datasets, while valuable, often come with serious challenges—they can be incomplete, expensive, biased, difficult to label, or restricted by privacy regulations. Synthetic data, by contrast, can be generated in large volumes, simulate rare scenarios, and help mitigate privacy concerns. When built with deep domain knowledge, synthetic data becomes a powerful tool to enhance AI models across sectors like health, finance, manufacturing, and public administration.
But this opportunity also brings significant responsibilities.
This workshop is designed to:
- Examine how synthetic data can responsibly supplement or replace real-world data.
- Explore the legal frameworks and ethical guidelines necessary for its trustworthy deployment.
- Spark cross-sector conversations on fairness, privacy, bias mitigation, and societal impact.
Expert Presentations
The session will include a series of presentations led by experts, covering essential concepts, challenges, outcomes, and real-world applications and will be complemented by an engaging panel discussion.
Why You Shouldn’t Miss It
This isn’t just another technical session—it’s an opportunity to help shape the future of trustworthy, legally compliant, and human-centric AI. With synthetic data poised to become a core element of responsible AI systems, now is the time to explore its promises, pitfalls, and the paths forward.
Join us in Athens as part of Data Week 2025 and take part in the odyssey of AI innovation, policy, and ethics.
