Moderated by the flagship team of KI Park e.V., a compact yet comprehensive discussion platform was created where numerous German companies could exchange experiences and strategies in the implementation of AI and data strategies in companies. The event, in which Vitesco Technologies acted as initiating partner, provided an excellent opportunity for constructive discussions and networking among the participants.
The list of participants was a cross-section of high-ranking management and technical experts from renowned companies such as the Volkswagen Group, CARIAD, Vitesco Technologies and NTT Germany AG & Co. KG. Special thanks also went to Cloudera, Informatica, BioNTech SE/InstaDeep Ltd, ML6 | Your partner in AI and Celonis, who shared their valuable experiences from implementation in large European companies with the participants and thus contributed to enriching the discussions.
The key topics covered during the exchange included essential aspects of data management that are crucial in the modern business landscape. These topics included data governance and control, particularly the automation of access rights when sharing data products, data security, data quality, data architecture and platform, and data flow. These discussions helped to highlight best practices and challenges related to the effective management and use of data in organisations.
In addition, specific data use cases were discussed in detail. Innovative approaches to using vehicle data for predictive user functions by sensors and third-party providers were discussed. The design and implementation of an enterprise search engine was also a key discussion point, highlighting the importance of efficient and effective data processing and search in a large enterprise context.
The event not only provided a platform for participants to share experiences and knowledge, but also to learn from the experiences of others and explore possible collaborations for future projects. The Flagships Corporates Peer Exchange event symbolises a constructive and forward-looking initiative that aims to promote the implementation and further development of AI and data strategies in German companies. With a wide range of topics discussed and case studies presented, the event serves as a beacon for efforts to effectively use and manage data and artificial intelligence in the corporate context.
