Challenge

AMBOSS decided to explore AI and generative AI solutions to boost several strategic areas of its operations, including its search engine and content creation processes.

The company turned to the Netguru consulting team to:

Identify trends and opportunities within the AI landscape that could easily be leveraged by AMBOSS.
Co-design the upcoming AI Hackathon to align with the company's strategy and goals.

Approach

AI Primer Session for the Leadership Team

As the first step in designing the concept for the AI Hackathon, Netguru ran a one-day AI Primer workshop.

We shared our helicopter view on the latest trends and potential use cases of AI and data science in the healthcare and edtech sectors. This served as a starting point for guided brainstorming with the AMBOSS leadership team.

At the end of the session, AMBOSS came up with a ranked list of impactful problem statements and use cases to guide the AI Hackathon.

While ideating on potential use cases for the AI Hackathon, we followed the AMBOSS team's guidelines. It was crucial to factor in the risk of AI hallucinations to avoid putting the highly trusted brand at risk.
