Swiss AI Accelerator brings AI to companies
With the Swiss AI Accelerator, AI Bridge and Digitalswitzerland are launching a structured support program to help Swiss companies integrate generative AI into their business operations in a targeted manner. The program focuses on concrete use cases and direct business impact.
AI Bridge has launched the Swiss AI Accelerator together with Digitalswitzerland. The program aims to support Swiss companies in the targeted use of generative AI in the face of global competitive pressure, as detailed in a press release. The background to this is that although many companies recognize the need for digital transformation, they often do not have a clear, practical implementation path.
A structured approach to AI integration
The three-month program is aimed at companies that already have initial experience with technologies such as ChatGPT or Copilot and focuses on the systematic development and integration of AI solutions into existing business processes.
Face-to-face sessions will take place every two weeks in Zurich, supplemented by individual coaching and peer exchanges. The focus is on practical implementation, not just pure theory. "We are building a clear path - realistic, practical and tailored to Switzerland," explains Afke Schouten, founder and Managing Partner of AI Bridge.
The offer comprises three central tracks: Business, Tech and Community. Specialists and managers would work together to develop concrete solutions for their day-to-day business. The program not only focuses on cost efficiency and resource conservation, but also offers access to experienced AI experts from Switzerland.
Application procedure starts
Five companies can take part in the first round in fall 2025. The Accelerator team will award the places as part of an application process. Interested companies can register for free information sessions in June 2025. Further information, conditions of participation and registration are available on the website Accelerator.aibridge.ch available. (Dajana Dakic/jor)
