Review of the strategy workshop held by our international AI team
In a time of rapid technological change, a specialized artificial intelligence team is essential for identifying potential early on, driving innovation in a targeted manner, and securing long-term competitive advantages.
Our international AI team was established at the beginning of the year—a forward-looking step for our company. A significant milestone followed in mid-June:
the first in-person workshop at the Attendorn site, where the team worked together to set the next strategic course.
Under the motto “Bring AI into our GEDIA genetics!”, our CCO Klaus Bierwirth gave an inspiring keynote speech at the beginning of the week – with the clear goal of anchoring artificial intelligence in our corporate DNA for the long term.
During the workshop week, the focus was on key topics: a joint review of the first few months, targeted team development measures, in-depth exploration of current AI topics, and the development of a strategic direction for the coming years. The week also included valuable, constructive exchanges with colleagues from the Mittelstand Digital Zentrum Ländliche Regionen (SME Digital Center for Rural Regions).
With a clear strategy and a stronger team spirit, we are shaping the next steps.
