Introduction
This continuation of the AIM project focuses on deepening and expanding the concept of AI Management—covering both leadership and governance of AI solutions, and the strategic management of operations that combine multiple AI technologies. The project aims to strengthen the university’s collaboration with industry in education, ensuring participants gain up-to-date scientific knowledge and practical skills.
A central theme remains decision-making in data-driven organizations, now with expanded emphasis on interdisciplinary applications, including innovation management and ethical considerations.
AI Management enables companies to navigate the opportunities and challenges of the AI era, fostering secure, sustainable, and competitive business operations where employees can actively contribute to transformation. Courses are tailored for professionals and offered in flexible formats.

Importance of competence development in AI management
As AI becomes increasingly embedded in diverse industries, the need for managers who can align AI adoption with strategic objectives is growing rapidly. The follow-up AIM project responds to this demand by providing training that blends theory and practice, equipping participants to design strategies, assess ethical implications, and integrate AI into core business processes.
Through these courses, participating companies strengthen their competitiveness, innovation capacity, and efficiency. The collaborative model ensures that course content is continually refined in response to evolving industry needs.
