London, UK, 14 August 2025, expandAI, a UK-based consultancy dedicated to helping businesses adopt responsible AI confidently and ethically, has joined the ISMS.online partner ecosystem.
This new collaboration strengthens expandAI’s mission to equip organisations with the tools, frameworks and strategic guidance they need to build AI systems that are not only innovative, but legally sound, trustworthy, and people-first.
With AI regulation tightening across Europe and the UK Government expected to legislate by 2027, the partnership comes at a crucial time. ISMS.online, the leading platform for simplifying compliance with global standards such as ISO/IEC 27001 and 42001, provides a powerful foundation for businesses seeking to implement governance-led AI strategies.

Through the partnership, expandAI will support clients to align with the ISO/IEC 42001 AI Management System standard, providing tailored workshops, fast-track audits, and governance toolkits, while leveraging ISMS.online’s award-winning platform to simplify implementation and reporting.
