Launch and objectives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cAI in Practice\u201d initiative, supported by the eco Association, establishes manageable concepts for companies dealing with current and future AI trends. It identifies opportunities and challenges from the perspective of various players in the value chain, from AI providers to data centres. A key megatrend is the development of data ecosystems. The initiative provides best practices and practical recommendations for action on how to exploit AI potential. The relevant framework conditions, such as the AI Act and the ESG Regulation, are taken directly into account. The topics and format are determined by the members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concrete concepts and market development<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Building on existing concepts in the market and among its members, the initiative identifies and develops valuable building blocks. A declared goal is to promote market development and initiate partnerships for new AI projects by members. Cooperation is pre-competitive, practice-oriented and efficient, with sustainability and resilience integrated from the outset.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Successful launch in March 2024<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The kick-off event in March 2024<\/a>, with 17 pitches and 80 participants, provided a broad and concrete foundation for the initiative. Presentations and interactive sessions on key topics \u2014such as AI platforms (model hosting, trust, Gaia-X), AI applications (enterprise AI, use cases, generative AI, social robots), data ecosystems, sustainable data centres and regulatory frameworks (AI Act, IT security, trustworthiness) \u2014 as well as the concept of an AI study for decision-makers, were met with great interest. During the interactive sessions, the core topics were discussed directly on site and concrete goals and expected results of the initiative were jointly defined for the third quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Formation of working groups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The kick-off resulted in the formation of three thematic working groups:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
