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 3rd | Time tbc: Masterclass on Knowledge Graphs
Sebastian Schirber, Partner at Artefact, and Michael Völske, Director Data Science at Artefact, will host a deep-dive Masterclass designed specifically for senior leaders. These function-led, closed-room discussions are tailored for those who want to gain the clarity and confidence necessary to lead their organizations in an AI-driven world and make better decisions faster.
