AI’d Forge – German-Finnish cooperation in the transfer of AI technologies to companies
The German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) and Finnish AI implementation expert Emblica, based in Helsinki, will support companies in digital transformation in the future. DFKI will contribute its research expertise in the technology fields of data analysis, generative AI, image and signal recognition and processing as well as AI-based forecasting. Emblica will share its experience in advising companies in the field of business process optimization through AI-based software solutions and their implementation. The collaboration is complemented by the consulting company Remode ME and their expertise in international business development and venture building.
AI’d Forge aims to support companies in identifying the potential of artificial intelligence in their operations, developing customized AI solutions and implementing them.
Emblica focuses, in particular, on those areas in which AI promises a high return on investment and scaling opportunities. DFKI’s broad research spectrum and Emblica’s many years of practical experience offer companies a combination of in-depth industry knowledge and the latest research results. The aim is to implement these in such a way that the result is seamless integration into the existing company software.
The joint program under the name “AI’d Forge” was presented for the first time May 30, 2024, at the digital convention “Noerd” in Rostock, Germany.
Philipp Koch, Research Administrative Manager at DFKI’s department AI in Medical Image and Signal Processing:
“We aim to support companies in the best possible way with the use of artificial intelligence through AI’d Forge. In doing so, we rely on the expertise and know-how of the DFKI as well as the experience of Emblica to jointly identify challenges and develop tailored solutions for companies. Our focus is on a trustworthy and needs-based collaboration as well as knowledge transfer so that companies can optimally leverage AI opportunities for their success.”
Teemu Heikkilä, CEO of Emblica:
“With AI’d Forge, we support companies throughout their individual journey to the optimal use of artificial intelligence – from the initial idea to the implementation of the solution, its operation and its continuous further development. We always consider a company’s needs and resources, and customize our support accordingly, including knowledge transfer to in-house developers. Together with DFKI’s expertise and its broad research spectrum, we can significantly improve the way companies approach the implementation of AI.”
To this end, DFKI and Emblica have defined a model process that holistically maps the introduction of AI processes in companies. It describes the entire process chain from knowledge transfer to the possible uses of AI through to implementation. In joint workshops, the AI’d Forge team works with the company to identify the business areas with potential for optimization. The next step is to examine which AI technologies and processes could provide a remedy. Before implementation, AI’d Forge draws up a business case that specifically elaborates the expected benefits. The DFKI and Emblica team then examines what is required to develop an adapted AI solution and estimates the time, personnel and financial costs involved. The roll-out occurs based on a concrete development and implementation plan, which also focuses on the transfer of knowledge to in-house developers.
Thanks to the collaboration between a German research partner and a Finnish implementation service provider, AI’d Forge offers companies from both countries access to leading expertise in the field of AI. In the future, AI’d Forge could serve as a model for cross-border and cross-sector collaboration with other European partners.
