AI is already part of everyday business practice, from process automation and customer service to new products, services and more sustainable business models. Business, education and AI ecosystem representatives are invited to a practical business–education dialogue on how AI is used in companies, what skills are needed, and how education can better respond to business needs. The event will combine short expert inputs, practical company examples and interactive discussions on AI use, skills gaps and future training needs. The seminar is organised within the AI4GreenBUS project.
