Post Event Briefing | Shaping the Isle of Man’s New National AI Office | Nov 2025
17 November 2025
Thank you to everyone who joined our recent cross-sector briefing on Government’s plans to create a National AI Office. The session gave members an early look at the emerging model and a chance to influence how the new Office will work with business.
Lyle Wraxall from the Digital Agency shared the initial concept, and members explored what the Office should prioritise — from regulation and skills to industry partnerships and clear guidance for responsible adoption.
Our post-event briefing includes:
- Why a National AI Office is being created
- The proposed federated structure
- Early priorities across governance, innovation, and skills
- Member questions on regulation, international alignment, and business engagement
- Key milestones and launch timeline
You can read the full summary in our briefing paper.
