In my talks and webinars on artificial intelligence my focus is on bridging technology and business. The rapid development of the AI world makes it hard for many people to keep track. I therefore want to explain complex content in an accessible way and provide orientation. My goal is to show people without deep technical knowledge which topics are truly relevant, what to look out for and how to navigate effectively through the flood of information.
My Stage
for AI
My talks on the world of AI
It was never easy for me in the past to speak in front of larger groups. It still takes effort today to stand in front of an audience. Nevertheless, I gladly take on this challenge because it repeatedly pushes me out of my comfort zone and gives me the opportunity to grow. I find it particularly motivating to pass on my knowledge and inspire people. I love creating awareness of how AI can unlock not only technical but also strategic and economic potential. For me, conveying knowledge in a practical and immediately applicable way comes first. In a time when technologies are constantly changing, it is essential to ask the right questions and find the right answers, and that is exactly what I support my audience with, through passion and clarity.
bbv KI Webinar - Practical AI
Pioneering Use Cases with the Swiss AI Hub
The webinar focuses on practical uses of AI in software development, from requirements analysis through to testing and code reviews. It shows how workshop artefacts such as notes, post-its and sketches can be structured with speech-to-text and multimodal models and converted into requirements. In coding, the focus is on deliberate context management, sensible prompting strategies and the use of specialised assistants. For onboarding and knowledge building, AI is used as a navigation and learning aid in large codebases and as a step-by-step explanation partner. From an architecture perspective, the session covers tool research with controlled sources, systematic exploration of new codebases and switching between overview and implementation context.

Bootcamp AI-Agents - Transforming Organizations with AI Agents
What the Platform Must Deliver
On 13 March 2026 at the FHNW AI Agents Bootcamp I showed why a single working agent is not yet a solution and why a central platform becomes unavoidable from the third use case onward. Using six modules, knowledge base, governance, transparency, evaluation, LLM gateway and PII protection, I explained how each of these cross-cutting concerns can be solved once centrally rather than replicated for every use case. The central message: a PoC is quick to build, but the platform determines whether AI actually scales in the enterprise.

Bootcamp Artificial Intelligence for Management
Four Trends, One Pattern
On 5 March 2026 at the FHNW AI Bootcamp I presented four current AI trends in Swiss industry: models are converging and can now be chosen with low risk, agents are turning AI from a conversation partner into a co-worker, and open standards such as MCP connect AI to existing enterprise systems. Using concrete practical examples from knowledge management and predictive maintenance I showed that the value lies not in the model but in connecting it to your own data and systems. The central message: it is not the model that decides, it is the platform, because that is where long-term dependencies or genuine digital sovereignty arise.

bbv KI Webinar - Review/Outlook 2025/2026
AI Wrapped 2025 and Outlook 2026
The review of 2025 frames the development of AI models as a phase of convergence in which progress is visible less through classic benchmarks and more through efficiency and cost per performance. One focus is on the shift in differentiation from model quality to platform functions such as integration, memory, retrieval, governance and agentic workflows. The rivalry between the USA and China is framed as an interplay of massive infrastructure investments and an open-weight strategy with strong price pressure and a growing open-source ecosystem. For 2026, integration into existing enterprise systems and standards such as MCP are central, to connect AI workflows reliably with business applications. At the same time, lock-in effects and AI sovereignty are presented as decisions about data centre, platform and connected systems.

NLP Expert Group Meeting - AI Agents
A roadmap for successful adoption and scaling in organizations
An AI agent is positioned as an evolution beyond reactive assistants and examined along a spectrum between predefined workflows and high autonomy. The focus is on how agents can be reliably integrated into processes through clear guardrails, modularity and observable execution. A role model (TACO) classifies agents by function, from focused single tasks through to orchestrating complex end-to-end workflows. Multi-agent systems bring communication to the fore as the central challenge, including the tension between efficiency, portability and versatility. Various protocol approaches such as MCP, task- and artefact-oriented models and chat-like runtime concepts are compared as building blocks for structured collaboration between agents and systems.

9th Datenschutztag AI & Data Protection
Understanding Data Movements and Their Implications
Data flows in AI systems are complex and multifaceted. The strategic arrangement of system components in which data is captured, stored, and transmitted forms the foundation of our analysis. By carefully examining the dynamics and interactions in typical generative AI systems, we aim to identify and raise awareness of both directly visible and concealed data streams. Our primary goal is ultimately to sharpen awareness of potential data leaks in order to support and promote the stability, sustainability, and integrity of AI systems.
