Corporate Innovation Roundtable

​The German economy is at a critical breaking point, urgently needing increased AI adoption and innovation across its key sectors and leading enterprises to maintain global competitiveness. Without rapid and strong implementation of cutting-edge AI, German industry risks stagnation and falling behind international rivals

​A core problem in sectoral AI adoption is the challenge of transferring cutting-edge AI technologies into real-world applications. Key players, specifically Innovation Labs within corporations, are often at the forefront of pushing this innovation, yet they frequently encounter shared hurdles.

​To directly solve this problem, we are bringing together leading industry players for a regular roundtable for Corporate Innovation Labs in Germany. This initiative is designed to accelerate technology implementation across German industry by pooling the expertise of corporate innovation heads. Participants will discuss how these big industry players collaborate with startups beyond PoCs and also build high productive and transformative partnership with tech play.
