Many companies talk about Artificial Intelligence, but only a few are able to fully exploit its potential with measurable results. In this workshop, we will guide you in a change of perspective: not starting from technology, but from the real value that AI can generate in the key processes of your business.
Thanks to our experience with the AI Bootcamp, we will explore an "encouraging" path to identify concrete opportunities and launch projects that generate significant impact in terms of efficiency and effectiveness. We will show you how AI is already producing tangible effects in areas such as technical documentation management, support for processes in Operations, After Sales, and the creation of complex offers through intelligent configurators.
We will share a structured approach to map out needs, understand potential, and define an implementation roadmap. An essential guide for entrepreneurs and managers who want to move from curiosity to action, avoiding the most common pitfalls and focusing on skills, method, and concrete goals.
Speaker: Maria Helena Franciscatto, Consultant, Digital Competence Center at Bonfiglioli Consulting. Thanks to her PhD in Computer Science and her deep experience in Data Science and software development, Maria Helena will provide you with a clear and practical view on the adoption of AI.
With its consolidated experience in internationalization, Octagona will offer advice and support to companies that wish to expand their presence in digital and international markets.
