On September 26th, 2019, around 120 guests, exhibitors and speakers celebrated the first anniversary of the "The Digital Now" series of events. At the big digitalization convention at the Flydeck in the Ecos Office Center on the Teerhof they looked back on the past year, but above all forward to the future: artificial intelligence, augmented reality, 3D printing, gamification - in workshops and in the exhibition there was not only information on these topics, but the guests were also able to try them out for themselves.

In her welcoming address, Kristina Vogt, Senator for Economics, Labour and Europe, made it clear that technologies such as artificial intelligence are of course used intensively by the world's big Amazons and Googles - but that medium-sized, small and micro enterprises also need access to these technologies if they are to survive in 10 or 15 years' time. The three workshops discussed which business models are ready for the digital world, how Augmented Reality works and what opportunities Gamification can bring to companies. In the exhibition, Materialise used models to show how 3D printing works, among other things. Two keynote lectures dealt with the "Paradox Artificial Intelligence - Opportunities and Limits of a Digital Society".

"The Digital Now - Exciting Practical Examples" is a series of events organised by bremen digitalmedia and the Mittelstand 4.0-Kompetenzzentrum Bremen, in which BIBA is involved. The series is intended to invite small and medium-sized enterprises in particular to deal with various topics of the digitalization process and to further their education in dialogue with experts from the field.
