Test before choosing

The AI Workshop in Solothurn lets your team test practical tasks with anonymised documents and choose a useful first experiment. Participants leave with a working method and review criteria before buying or building a solution.

01START WITH A REAL TASK

Example to discuss in Solothurn: prepare a review checklist for a manufacturing file. During the workshop, participants use an anonymised sample, write an instruction and compare two outputs against their own reference. The outcome is a decision about usefulness and the checks required, rather than a deployment.

On site in Solothurn, remote across Switzerland

The Solothurn region pairs an industrial fabric of machine tools, watchmaking and medtech with a services economy; the town, with its art museum and the Solothurn Film Festival, plays a regional cultural role.

Solothurn is a baroque town on the Aare at the foot of the Jura, and the centre of an industrial plain stretching from Grenchen to Olten: watches and movements in Grenchen, machine tools and precision engineering, implants and medical instruments in Bettlach and around, a biotech plant in town, and a network of mechanical subcontractors. The fine-arts museum, the film days and the festivals give the town a regional cultural role that supports hotels and restaurants.

Solothurn SMEs work mostly on manufacturing topics: preparing a review checklist for a production file, writing inspection instructions, structuring a contractor’s complaints, or maintaining technical documentation in German and English for export. In medtech and pharma, traceability and validation requirements are strict; exercises use anonymised documents and no batch data is altered without human control.

Between the Aare and the Weissenstein ridge, the town keeps a human scale: decisions are taken quickly, often within one family, and management expects a tool to prove itself on a precise task before it is extended to the shop floor.

Before the first conversation

Do participants need prior AI experience?

No. Exercises are adapted to the starting level. A shareable document and a real task are enough to prepare a useful session.

What can we decide after the workshop?

You can select a limited trial, its owner and success criteria. Connecting business systems requires separate scoping.

What format is available in Solothurn?

A half-day or full day depending on the participants and exercises. Location, any travel and scope are agreed before confirmation.
