AI You Can Touch: New Opportunities for SMEs in Bayreuth
How do Artificial Intelligence and modern sensor technology become the efficiency and innovation driver in companies? The roadshow Hands-on AI: How AI & Sensor Technology Create New Value in SMEs will showcase concrete pathways from technology to practical application on October 29, 2026, at the Bayreuth Founder Center.
Practical Impulses Instead of Abstract Theory
From 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM, the event is aimed at employees and decision-makers of small and medium-sized enterprises. The SME-Digital Center Franconia organizes the format together with the Bayreuth Founder Center and the Sparkasse Bayreuth-Hof. The focus is on manufacturer-neutral information, concrete application examples, and the question of how AI creates real value in the business everyday life.
Start-up Pitches and Insights from Practice
Two regional start-up pitches will bring special dynamism to the stage. Companies like inContAlert and NeuroForge will present innovative approaches and give the audience space for questions. Additionally, expert presentations will provide insights into industrial AI applications, including the KI-now project of Fraunhofer IPA.
Try Out AI Demonstrators Directly
It won’t just be about listening: the AI demonstrators of the SME-Digital Center Franconia will be available for interactive testing. Fraunhofer IPA will also be on-site with a demonstrator. The stand staff will support participants and make technological connections vividly experienceable.
Networking, Catering, and Tours of the Research Facility
The event connects professional exchange with personal networking during breaks. A small catering will accompany the conversations between companies, research, and innovative start-ups. Additionally, there is the opportunity for a tour through the New Materials Bayreuth. A separate registration is required for this tour; places are limited.
Who Should Attend the Event?
The format particularly targets SMEs, innovation managers, executives, as well as specialists and managers who are assessing the potential uses of AI and sensor technology or planning initial steps in digital transformation. The event planning combines expertise, demonstrations, and regional networking into a compact event experience.
Conclusion
The roadshow makes visible how concrete value creation can arise from data, sensors, and Artificial Intelligence. Those seeking guidance for their AI entry, who want to learn about practical examples, and build new contacts in the region will experience an informative afternoon in Bayreuth with direct application reference.
