AI Governance & Safety: Building AI That Won’t Backfire

The AI governance and safety landscape has reached a turning point in 2025. With the first legal framework dedicated to AI, European lawmakers are addressing the impacts of artificial intelligence across industries. As a consequence, organizations are now rushing to establish robust governance systems that mitigate AI risks before regulations become compulsory.

The AI safety market is booming. The AI in Security market is expected to reach US$30.02 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.02%, and is projected to grow to US$71.69 billion by 2030. These growth rates highlight the urgent need for tools and frameworks that ensure AI systems are safe, transparent, and aligned with human values.

This year presents significant opportunities for organizations that prioritize the development of risk-based governance frameworks, establish continuous monitoring systems, and prepare for diverging AI regulations across global markets. Companies that act proactively and invest in strong AI governance will benefit from reduced operational risk and a sustained competitive advantage.

Worldwide, the window for voluntary self-regulation is closing rapidly as governments move toward enforcing mandatory AI regulations. Timely and strategic action by business leaders to implement governance structures that balance innovation with safety must therefore be treated as an immediate priority.
