We are entering the undiscovered country! After the implementation of first use cases at DISH Digital Solutions we want to push AI to the next level for the hospitality sector. To do this we kicked of a strong cooperation with FOM Hochschule für Oekonomie & Management to enter new areas where nobody went before. Thanks to Prof. Dr. Rüdiger Buchkremer PhD and with the strong support of Florian Hox & Dr. Stefan Ebener we offer the students a unique environment  and enable them to push themself to the limits. I am looking forward to the project and the results of the 40 students developing a Gen-AI self-service platform for the hospitality industry. See below more details about the project and our goals. #AI #PowerofDataAnalytics #DataDriven #hospitality

A brand's roots and core design are its North Star, giving it a unique direction in a crowded market. Without them, brands run the risk of becoming indistinguishable. It's shocking to see how many brands may be ignoring their foundation and jeopardizing their long-term viability as a result. Seeing the new Jaguar logo made me reflect on this. While modernizing is important, it raises the question: at what cost? Are we losing what made brands iconic in the first place? What are your thoughts on how brands balance evolution and heritage?

BIG NEWS: Bitpanda is official partner of the NFL, the National Football League 🇺🇸🏉 Bitpanda is pushing ahead with its sports sponsorship, helping to bring National Football League to Europe. Startup news agency brutkasten reported that the Bitpanda becomes the official partner of the NFL from the coming season. This adds to its existing sponsorship portfolio, which includes FC #Bayern Munich, AC #Milan and tennis star Dominic Thiem. Bitpanda and the National Football League (NFL), which is expanding its global reach through games in Europe for several years, have agreed a long-term partnership. The new partnership is intended to further raise the profile of American football in the DACH market. In addition to the partnership with the NFL, Bitpanda has concluded several media partnerships with NFL broadcasters such as RTL, DAZN and belN. The company will also work with NFL legends Sebastian Vollmer and Markus Kuhn, two of the leading NFL commentators in Europe, to create exclusive content throughout the season. ‘We are impressed by the holistic concept with which Bitpanda wants to support American football in Germany and have felt a strong passion from the very beginning,’ says Alexander Steinforth, General Manager NFL Germany. American Football is a growing sport in Europe that is reaching more and more people faster and faster. It therefore makes sense for Bipanda to enter into a partnership with the NFL.

🚀 A Landmark Event: First Esports Branch Dialogue 🌟 Changing Tides in Professional Recognition I had the privilege to participate and represent metagame in the inaugural Esports Branch Dialogue at the Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz in Berlin. This event marked a significant milestone, not only for the esports industry in Germany but also for personal journeys within the gaming community. For years, traditional sports achievements were lauded, while esports triumphs were overlooked. This dialogue represents a pivotal shift, acknowledging the value of gaming prowess in professional settings. Thanks a lot to ESBD - eSport-Bund Deutschland e.V. to make this happen and work! 🎮 From Gamer to Business Innovator - one of the dominant topic at this dialogue At metagame, we've pioneered a framework that aligns gaming skills directly with business competencies that companies desperately need. This innovative approach translates gamers' strategic thinking, team dynamics, and problem-solving abilities into valuable business assets. Our methodology challenges stereotypes and demonstrates how gamers can drive business innovation and efficiency. 🔗 Bridging Worlds: HR and Gaming This dialogue reaffirmed our mission at metagame - integrating gaming skills into the workforce is not just innovative but essential. Our work fosters a new HR paradigm that enhances recruitment, promotes diversity, and champions the unique skills of gamers. As we continue to innovate and push the boundaries of HR practices, I am inspired by the future we are crafting - one where gamers are valued as much as any traditional athlete in the world of business.

🚀 Exciting news! Our new marketing campaign is here, highlighting how easy it is to purchase cryptocurrencies with Cryptonow. It's even simpler than overcoming everyday challenges. ☝️ As Bitcoin's price rises and the upcoming Halving event approaches, accessing cryptocurrencies remains a challenge for many. Our campaign aims to shift this perception and showcase the straightforward process of buying crypto. NORD DDB developed the concept "Easier than", focusing on everyday small challenges we all face. With clear messaging, we emphasize Cryptonow's user-friendliness. FORWARD ensures our ads reach the right audience: Screens at busy train stations greet commuters with "Easier than finding a seat on the train." In cinemas, our posters proclaim "Easier than choosing snacks." More efforts include tram window stickers with "Easier than not missing your stop" as well as contextually relevant banners in digital media.

In her recent interview with t3n Magazin, Sandra Wandschneider, one of our P&C Business Managers, sheds light on InnoGames' journey toward pay equity. "Pay equity is a goal worth striving for, and salary bands make an important contribution to this," Sandra shares. Two and a half years after implementing transparent salary bands, we're seeing the positive impact firsthand—and we hope to inspire others to consider this step. Curious about the journey and the effort involved? 👉 Read the full interview to learn more about how InnoGames approaches pay transparency: https://lnkd.in/ecXzbUrk

You're right, Monika really did a great job of expressing the importance of Behavioral Elements. Behavioral Elements add depth to our understanding of the self and help us effectively navigate our relationships. Understanding the scientific principles underlying human behavior allows us to be more conscious and effective in both personal development and interactions. This understanding enables us to comprehend why people behave in certain ways, thus helping us build our relationships on a stronger foundation. Ultimately, understanding Behavioral Elements helps us better grasp the complex nature of humans and enables us to lead a more fulfilling life by applying this knowledge to our relationships and personal growth.

✨ I'm thrilled to announce that I've joined Media Lab Bayern's MEDIA TECH Lab's Batch 5 🤩 I’m developing a browser extension tailored for editors and professionals involved in text-related research, writing, and editorial reviewing. This MIT licensed open-source "AI toolbox" enables direct interaction with any website's content for tasks such as extraction (and Markdown conversion), audio transcription, translation, summarization, re-phrasing and more. It supports all major open-source and commercial AI models (OpenAI, Anthropics, Google, Cohere, Meta, etc. pp.), whether cloud-based, deployed on-premise, or locally. A pivotal goal is to foster a community that collaboratively creates and refines the open-sourced, high-quality dynamic prompts that drive the AI models within a professional, journalistic context. One technical challenge I'm tackling here is to minimize costs and enhance privacy by ensuring that AI tasks are processed locally whenever possible. This includes demonstrating how to implement vector embedding, indexing, and search in-browser using HNSW and cosine similarity algorithms, accelerated by WebAssembly and WebGPU. 🚀 This journey began last week at Media Lab Bayern with an exceptional group of fellows including Dr. Mirza Klimenta, Tobias Sterbak, and Sabine Wieluch, who also secured funding for their impressive projects 🙌 — definitely worth checking out! Special thanks to Jason Shen and Erkan Kasap from Media Lab Bayern for this amazing opportunity and their amazing support and guidance! 🙏💚 Stay tuned for regular updates, tech insights, and research results from this project right here on LinkedIn. And what's going to be the first content created with the help of FTR: KI-Tools? Well, that'll probably ftr.news, a Newsletter that Ute Muendlein and I plan to publish by Q3 2024 -- hence the project name. Well, there's so much to come, just stay tuned! ☺️ #Innovation #AI #Tech #vectorembedding #vectorstore #browserextension #llms #bayern #technologieland #innovationsland_bayern

It was truly inspiring to connect with people from different industries and explore the parallels between wine and real estate as alternative asset classes. 🍷 🇨🇭The growing Swiss market is particularly impressive. More and more individuals turn to tangible assets like real estate or, in the case of our clients, exclusive wine collections. In uncertain times, these investments provide added security by combining tradition with economic potential. 📈 #alternativeinvestments #finewine Web Summit

The heating of drinking water is the second largest energy consumer in buildings after the generation of space heating. Against this background, the German Energy Agency (dena), together with the ITG Institute for Technical Building Equipment Dresden on behalf of the VDMA member company, has Hansgrohe Group investigated how much energy can be saved by (hot) water-saving faucets and showers. The result makes you sit up and take notice: with these technologies alone, there is a savings potential of two percent for existing buildings and six percent for new buildings – in relation to the total primary energy demand of the respective building. In combination with decentralised water heating, even twelve percent can be achieved. The study underlines how important it is for the German and European sanitary industry to communicate its potential for more sustainability in sanitary facilities even more strongly to politicians and the public, because the industry's technologies for more energy efficiency in buildings are diverse. Raising awareness of this issue is also one of the declared goals of the VDMA Sanitary Technology and Design, which brings together 25 of the renowned brand manufacturers in the German and European sanitary industry and building technology.
