Big Data and AI in Business 2022

As part of Data Week Leipzig 2022, ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig organizes the fifth edition of Big Data and AI in Business (BDIB) on July 7th. BDIB is a one-day workshop, which will take place at the town hall of Leipzig.

BDIB aims to foster the transfer of research results in the areas Big Data, Data Science and AI into business applications. Furthermore, we want to improve the practical and professional exchange of information between application partners and stakeholders in the Big Data and AI industry. Speakers of regionally and internationally operating organizations will present their practical experiences regarding new methods in Data Science, Big Data and AI in specific business and application areas.

Furthermore, the Living Lab of ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig gives researchers the opportunity to present their latest research results by using our demonstrators. Ultimately we try to inspire innovative approaches and establish a platform for further pilot projects and cooperations. All participants are invited to take part in a joint dinner at the end of the workshop.
