DIGITAL & DATA LEADERS DINNER
IMPLEMENTING AI IN AN INDUSTRIALISED WAY
19.02.2025 AT BRIGHTWOLVES' OFFICE
REGISTER BEFORE 15.02.2025
How to go from ad hoc AI initiatives to delivering AI solutions in an industrialised way? We are not organising another AI event on what the technology can do. In this third edition of the BrightWolves Digital & Data leaders Dinners we instead take a deeper look at one of the most important steps in the AI value chain: getting to an industrialised way of working. What are the key success factors and pitfalls in industrialising ad hoc AI initiatives?
We’ve invited Hannes Heylen and Christian Merz, two frontrunners in Data and AI in Europe, to share how they are successfully implementing and industrialising the newest AI technologies across their respective organisations. Walk away with new insights, lessons learned, and connections.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
Join us for a free evening of honest conversation with industry leaders in AI and data. They’ll share their strategies and how they went from proof of concepts to industrial implementations. Expect an evening of meaningful conversations with industry peers, thought-provoking discussions, and the chance to build valuable relationships with like-minded professionals.
