Developed by the University of Duisburg-Essen, Hochschule Rhein-Waal, Duisburg Business & Innovation GmbH, HAN University of Applied Sciences, Wirtschaftsförderung Kreis Kleve, and Kreis Wesel, the programme offers SMEs a structured path from first contact with AI all the way to implementing a real AI project inside their own company.

Through workshops and events, regional universities demonstrate concrete AI applications, transfer knowledge, and accompany companies through implementation, providing guidance that is practical, accessible, neutral, and scientifically grounded.

Co-financed by the European Union through the EFRE/JTF Programme NRW 2021–2027.
