Global AI Regulations Fuel Billion-Dollar Market for AI Governance Platforms
Information Technology
The cost of unmanaged AI risk is escalating. According to Gartner, by 2030, fragmented AI regulation will quadruple and extend to 75% of the world’s economies, driving $1 billion in total compliance spend.
This regulatory wave is transforming AI governance platforms from nice-to-have to a critical necessity. With spending on AI governance expected to reach $492 million in 2026 and surpass $1 billion by 2030, organizations are reassessing the tools and strategies needed to stay ahead of both regulatory and operational risk.
We spoke with Lauren Kornutick, Director Analyst at Gartner, to understand what organizations must consider as they evaluate and adopt AI governance platforms.
