Yet today, that potential is largely unrealised. The technology is advancing at an unprece- dented speed, but the governance is not keeping pace. And the populations who stand to benefit most are the ones being left furthest behind. This is why the conversation at the G7 matters now. France has placed digi- tal governance and the ethics of artificial intelligence firmly on the Évian agenda, reflecting a wider recognition that tech-
nological progress without public trust will not deliver real-world impact. In health, that principle is especially clear: Innovation will move at the speed of trust. THE GOVERNANCE DEFICIT IS REAL — AND THE G7 MUST LEAD The world’s most advanced econo- mies have made bold investments in AI innovation. What has lagged is the cor- responding investment in governance that allows innovation to scale responsi- bly. Without strong regulatory capacity, ethical guardrails and international coordination, even the most promis- ing AI solutions will struggle to move beyond pilots or reach those who need them most. This is not a call to slow down innova- tion. It is precisely the opposite. It is an
