Promote innovations
The aim of the association is to promote specific applications of artificial intelligence and to develop a corresponding ethical and regulatory framework in Germany and Europe in compliance with legal requirements. Further AI Park locations are already being planned. Members of the new association include prominent organizations from business, science and politics such as Volkswagen, Celonis and Deloitte. Prof. Dr. Sabina Jeschke, former member of the Executive Board of Deutsche Bahn, will become Chairwoman of the Executive Board of the KI Park in Berlin.
"In many intensive and constructive discussions with the leading minds in the field of artificial intelligence, we analyzed the current state of development of AI in Germany and Europe"says CEO Jeschke. "It is clear that cooperation between business, science and politics must be driven forward. That is why we are joining forces to exploit the potential of new AI technologies. By transforming the KI Park into a non-profit association, we are creating a platform that is unique in Germany."
