    AI Transformation Buildathon

    Turn your AI strategy into a working product. In 3 days, your team will build, validate, and launch an AI-based service - from idea to tested prototype.

    June 22-24, 2026
    AI Lab, Dresden
    3 Days
    3-5 people per team
    Why now

    Strategy without execution is just a slide deck

    Most companies leave their AI Masterclass inspired but stuck. They understand the Reshuffle - how AI is transforming their industry - but they lack the capacity, tools, and speed to turn that insight into a real product. The gap between strategy and execution is where most AI initiatives die.

    The AI Transformation Buildathon bridges that gap. It's the natural next step after the Business Transformation Masterclass: instead of analyzing the reshuffle, you now build the next generation of your business model. In 3 intense days, with vibe coding tools, expert mentors, and real user validation.
