Artificial Intelligence
Design Sprint France
Unlock the opportunity of AI through this guided workshop,
and accelerate your team’s design and prototyping.
About the Event
Artificial intelligence presents an opportunity for publishing and media organisations to better understand customers, power dynamic user experiences, and increase efficiency of internal processes. But to capture the opportunity, organisations need a structured approach which brings together a diverse range of stakeholders.
FT Strategies, in collaboration with the Google News Initiative, invite you to join us for an opportunity to accelerate your organisation's AI capability at this full day workshop tailored specifically for French news publishers. Experts from FT Strategies will facilitate this design workshop with your cross-functional team to identify opportunities for using AI and practical next steps suitable for your organisation. You should assign 3-5 individuals to the team, drawn from a wide range of departments, but with editorial, commercial, and tech departments as a minimum. All sessions are designed to be relevant for all, and collaboration is a core tenet of the programme.
This Design Sprint will be taking place in-person on Monday, 4 November in France, with the exact location to be announced soon.
On the day of the workshop you can expect to:
- Explore the problem space to identify relevant use cases for AI
- Think strategically in order to prioritise potential AI use cases
- Learn from industry case studies
- Design potential solutions
- Create a set of actionable next steps for developing designed solutions and AI capabilities more broadly
Applications close Monday, 21 October, 17:00 CET.
