Karina Palyutina

Senior Staff Standardisation Specialist

Cambridge, United Kingdom

A dynamic and strategic leader specializing in the full lifecycle of AI and digital systems. My career journey began with deep technical development, where I built state-of-the-art solutions in distributed ledger technologies, deepRL, robotics and computer vision at Nokia Bell Labs. Over 20 granted patents and publications and bags of hands-on experience provided a robust foundation for my transition into business and governance. I have since excelled in roles shaping AI strategy, advising senior leaders, and contributing to global initiatives to translate complex regulatory frameworks, such as the EU AI Act, into practical standards.
