11/28/24, 2:10 PM Integrating Global Standards for Human Knowledge and AI [MBRF Knowledge Summit Special Issue] – RealKM
MBRF’s integration of the knowledge management, innovation, and AI standards is a world first, and follows
MBRF already being the world’s first nonprofit organisation to receive ISO 30401 Knowledge management

systems – Requirements certification in 2019, shortly after this standard was published.

The standards leadership of MBRF also supports the call to action recently made by the United Nations (UN)
for enhanced artificial intelligence (AI) governance through international standards, coinciding with the
adoption of the Global Digital Compact as part of the landmark Pact for the Future. Such standards integration

is also supported by new research , as summarized in a recent RealKM Magazine article.

MBRF has appointed Ron Young as Chief Knowledge and Artificial Intelligence Advisor to develop the

integrated management system based on the ISO 30401, ISO 42001, and ISO 56001 standards. He is
acknowledged as a leading international expert and thought leader in strategic knowledge and AI
management. This includes high-level expert knowledge of ISO standards, with Ron being formally a member

of the National Standards Committees BSI KMS/1 (Knowledge Management), BSI IMS/1 Innovation
Management, BSI ART/1 Artificial Intelligence, and BSI AMS/1 Asset Management. As a member of these

committees, he attends the ISO standards committees ISO 30401:2018, ISO 56001 Innovation Management
and ISO 42001 Artificial Intelligence Management Systems.

His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, states that:

The UAE Cabinet, chaired by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al

Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai,

adopted the National Artificial Intelligence Strategy 2031. The MBRF is
contributing to this strategy with its mission to bring the best possible methods for

creating, transferring, and applying knowledge to individuals, teams,

organizations, and knowledge-based societies across the world. We have been

working with Ron Young since 2016, and we are delighted to now collaborate on
creating integrated knowledge and AI-driven management systems. This will help

organizations identify and develop critical and core knowledge assets, both human

and digital, that can be enhanced through effective knowledge management and

artificial intelligence.

A large number of organizations have so far expressed interest in the MBRF Manual. Further information on
MBRF’s standards integration can be found in Ron’s presentation slides.
