Home / / Newsletter July: Data & AI Business Catalyst

Dear Datentreiber friends and followers,

You’ve probably noticed we skipped the May and June newsletter – not because we spent too much summer time at the lake, but because we were busy with clients and our own projects.

TOOLS & TEMPLATES

For example, we released a first version of the Data & AI Business Catalyst: an AI-based facilitator and advisor living in Miro and helping you to co-create better data & AI strategies and solutions. This early prototype v2) is now freely available on Miroverse and already integrated into our two most popular Miroverse templates:

🛠️ Lean Data & AI Strategy Workshop

🛠️ Multi-Agent System (MAS) Design Workshop

You can already get a first impression of the Catalyst from the video of our June Lunch & Learn.

We’ve also released two new tools on Miroverse:

🛠️ Data & AI Use Case Manager: create an AI portfolio management software from your business strategy slides.

🛠️ Data & AI Workshop Briefing Summarization: summarize all the briefing presentations for a workshop as a markdown document.

If you have any questions or feedback about our tools & templates, please let us know. We welcome your ideas and feedback!

EVENTS & OFFERS

By the way, we’re taking a summer break in August and will return in the September with new dates for our Lunch & Learn series. In addition to the virtual meetings, there will again be Miro Meetups in Berlin, Munich and Zurich. The best way to stay informed about all events is to subscribe to our calendar on Luma.
