What a brilliant day at Data Science Ruhrgebiet 2026!

The #DSRuhrgebiet once again provided the perfect platform for dialogue between academia, industry and data science professionals.

At HUMAINE, we had the opportunity to demonstrate what a working world powered by AI might look like when people are at the centre. A highlight was our own session, which featured an engaging panel discussion on the challenges and success stories surrounding the introduction of sustainable, AI-powered systems and processes. Many thanks to Stefanie Rogg, Helge Heisters, Fabian Hoose, Antonia Weirich and Niklas Obermann for sharing your perspectives and experiences!

Afterwards, there were two opportunities to explore our AI lab and see for ourselves how roles and teamwork change when AI is part of the team. Thank you to Niklas Obermann and Nicholas Brinker for your expert guidance!

A huge thank you also goes to everyone who visited our stand! We made lots of exciting new contacts, had inspiring conversations and came away with valuable ideas for future projects. It is precisely this direct exchange that makes #DSRuhrgebiet such a special reunion.

Thank you to the entire organising team at BO-I-T and Labs.ruhr for this thoroughly successful event. We’re leaving feeling full of energy and are already looking forward to the next one!
