🪖 AI for Business
Empower your company with real AI
No math, no CS, no algorithms
(despite a PhD in Applied Mathematics with 10 years of industry experience)
but everything you need for an AI project to create real value in your organization
2 to 3 days together dedicated to AI in your company
⏱️ How does it work?
Far from videoconferences, we work with one client at a time, on-site—whether you are a team of 2 or 20—to understand your experience and needs as deeply as possible.
Between theory and practice, we leave plenty of time for in-depth discussions. These workshops are custom-designed for you, our client. We’ll help you grasp what really matters as a manager, even if you’re technical!
Get ready and stay alert: the ship is leaving port and everyone’s on deck! You won’t be allowed to doze off—this isn’t a marathon lecture. You’ll learn just enough to jump straight back into your projects. We’ll make sure of it, sailor!
This format guarantees a hands-on, execution-focused experience to get you up and running:
- 3 days for planning and tailoring content to your company’s objectives
- 2 intensive days with you—mornings on theory, afternoons on practical workshops solving your real challenges
- 2 days for strategic synthesis, delivering a bespoke action plan for concrete, lasting results
🧑🏫 Artificial Intelligence for your business
There’s a costly gap between technical teams and managers—misaligned incentives and understanding lead to expensive AI project failures. From our hands-on and theoretical expertise, we built this course to bridge that divide.
We teach the core concepts not only for your AI projects but for your strategic goals. You know your company should be doing more with AI; we’ll steer you clear of biases and pitfalls! We work with one client at a time because true progress comes from focused precision.
We love and know the math and code, but we won’t bog you down in it—there are so many other factors that determine your AI success!
Our content has been carefully designed, tested, and refreshed over the years:
- Fundamental AI concepts
- Effective case studies and strategies
- Do’s and don’ts
- A knowledge base of over 36 hours and 300+ slides, updated continuously for 3+ years
👩💼 Who is this bootcamp for?
Whether you’re a manager, C-level executive, or AI specialist, this program helps you cut through the buzzwords and embed AI strategically in your organization—guiding you toward impact-driven leadership.
Don’t let the geeks baffle you! Don’t let your boss frustrate you! Success comes from communication and mindset from management to tech, and vice-versa.
🚀 A transformative experience for your company
Through hands-on workshops, you’ll learn the right reflexes to run AI projects effectively—from development through production.
Bringing AI to life is a mindset that creates real business value. Beyond slogans like “no data, no science,” you’ll learn to treat your data treasure with the respect it deserves—breaking silos and leveraging your competitive edge.
