The Flywheel's Industrial AI Innovators Mixer
Could a problem you see at work become the starting point for a coHave you encountered a persistent industrial problem and thought, “I should build a solution for this”, but didn’t know where to start or who to build it with?
Join The Flywheel for an informal evening with experienced industry professionals who share an ambition to solve hard problems in Europe's most critical industries.
What happens
Three industry speakers share concrete challenges from their work: why they matter, where existing solutions fall short, and what a better solution would need to achieve. Together we explore where AI, software or other new technologies could offer a fresh approach.
Over light bites and drinks, meet the speakers, exchange ideas with fellow attendees and learn about The Flywheel's Founder-in-Residence programme.
Who it's for
Professionals in production, automation, supply chain, energy, sustainability, infrastructure or defence/security who are interested in solving meaningful problems and exploring whether they could build a company around one.
