Artefact is going to take part in the Accelerate Tomorrow AI Summit 2026, taking place on June 2-3 in Berlin. As the corporate world shifts its focus from AI experimentation to proven frameworks and real business value, our experts will be on the ground to demonstrate how organizations can successfully scale AI to drive meaningful organizational change.
We invite you to engage with our leadership and consultants during our two specialised sessions. Our objective is to move beyond the buzzwords and illustrate how to turn AI into scalable growth and performance across industries.
Join our experts at the following sessions:
1) June 2nd | 4:20 pm – 5:00 pm: Data as the Lifeblood of AI Transformation with L’Oréal
Join us for an in-depth discussion featuring Hélène Dore, Global Chief Data and Analytics Officer at L’Oréal, and Edouard de Mézerac, Group CEO of Artefact. This session will explore the strategic approach required to integrate advanced data and AI solutions into large-scale global environments, moving beyond theoretical proofs-of-concept to achieve high-impact business value.
2) June 2nd | 5:30 pm – 5:50 pm : Unlocking Enterprise Intelligence with Knowledge Graphs
Sebastian Schirber, Partner at Artefact, and Michael Völske, Director Data Science at Artefact, demystify Knowledge Graphs – the essential “context layer” connecting your scattered knowledge, business logic and expertise into a single, intelligent structure. They will explore how modern Large Language Models finally make creating these graphs feasible at scale, transforming fragmented information into an always-on digital expert. Attendees will discover how Knowledge Graphs drive operational resilience, streamline processes, and power automated AI assistants, highlighted by a dynamic visual showcase of an HR post-merger integration. Don’t let your implicit expertise fade away; learn how to securely turn your tacit business knowledge into a scalable, actionable asset.
We look forward to connecting with fellow transformation leaders in Berlin to define the future of business.
