Use cases from the menu — proven solutions instead of a DIY project.
Choose a use case that can realistically be implemented within 90 days. We focus on the 80% that almost every mid-sized company needs.
A holistic program for rapid value creation:
Three pillars, one goal: your future readiness.
Strategy & Enablement
Technology alone isn’t enough. We evolve your organization—from culture to processes—so AI isn’t rejected as a foreign body, but adopted as a tool.
Use Case Implementation
We build what delivers. Together, we implement a proven solution that saves time or costs right away. Focused on impact and fast results—not theoretical tinkering.
Network & Exchange
Don’t learn by making the same mistakes—learn from others. Get access to exclusive events and peer formats with other mid-sized companies facing the same challenges.
In 90 days to your goal
You can implement multiple AI use cases in parallel or define more advanced AI engineering projects outside the program.
Create clarity.
We sort out what really matters to you.
- Fundamentals: An easy-to-understand crash course on AI and the new EU law.
- Selection: We identify the use case that delivers the most value for you.
- Tech check: Does your IT infrastructure fit? We assess it.
Outcome: A defined project scope and a clear implementation plan.
Build & learn.
We get to work together:
- Use case: We implement a working solution (e.g., automated document review).
- Support: In parallel, we upskill your team on strategy, data, and processes.
Outcome: A live application and employees who know how to use it.
Keep going.
Once the first step is done, we continue supporting you:
- Launch additional use cases in parallel.
- More advanced technical development.
- Long-term support for your transformation.

FAQs
The program is built specifically for small and mid-sized companies (SMEs) across industries that want to start, structure, or sustainably accelerate their AI transformation—and need a clear, hands-on roadmap for AI strategy, AI use cases, and implementation.
Yes. That’s exactly what the program is designed for. We use tools that don’t require coding skills, or we provide hands-on technical support. The only requirement is that someone on your team owns the topic internally (e.g., a project lead).
The AI program is organized in cohorts that start quarterly, allowing multiple mid-sized companies to join at the same time. Throughout the program, facilitated workshops, individual AI sessions, hands-on work phases, and various exchange formats help companies systematically advance their AI development and implementation. Flexible online sessions make it easy to integrate into day-to-day business.
No. For the first sprint, we often use no-code/low-code tools or partner solutions that work without deep coding expertise. We enable your existing teams (IT and business units) to use these tools effectively.
By the end of the program, you will have a clearly defined, actionable AI strategy, a articulated AI ambition, and a prioritized, hands-on AI use case. You’ll also leave with a structured portfolio of value-creating use cases, a clear delivery roadmap, and a deep understanding of the organizational, cultural, and technical prerequisites for a successful, scalable AI transformation.
Strategic AI partnerships are critical because no company—especially in the mid-sized segment—can master the complex, fast-moving field of AI on its own. They provide direct access to specialized AI know-how, proven AI technologies, and a strong ecosystem of innovators and best practices. The result: AI initiatives move faster, risks go down, and the impact, scalability, and long-term viability of your AI solutions go up.
Yes—if you want measurable progress in a short time and robust foundations, rather than running more experiments without a clear path to scale.
By tying quick wins to standards: clear ownership, clean processes, and operational foundations—so the next step becomes easier.
By focusing on a small number of use cases with high value and realistic effort—and using an approach that scales step by step.
We look forward to hearing from you.
