BRICS

BRICS is a geopolitical and economic alliance comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, representing major emerging market economies with significant global influence. The bloc has increasingly developed joint positions on AI governance, data sovereignty, and digital regulation that often contrast with Western-led frameworks like those from the EU and US. For enterprise AI governance, BRICS matters because its members collectively shape alternative standards for AI development, cross-border data flows, and algorithmic accountability that multinational organizations must navigate alongside traditional Western compliance regimes.
