Qoutes

  • AI heeft veel mogelijkheden, maar niet alles heeft baat bij AI. Sommige ontwikkeling zijn meer gebaat bij Actual Intelligence dan Artificial Intelligence.
  • Bij start-ups wordt vaak gefocust op het ophalen van kapitaal. Dat is niet bij elke onderneming de beste aanpak, soms kan bootstrappen beter werken.

Joeri Ruyssinck

Tijdens zijn doctoraat aan de Universiteit Gent paste hij met succes machine learning toe in uiteenlopende contexten: het oplossen van problemen in de gezondheidszorg, automatisering, productie, energie en HVAC, engineering en biotechnologie. Zijn onderzoek is gepubliceerd in verschillende toepassingsgebieden en is gepatenteerd. Voordat hij bij ML2Grow kwam, was hij mede-docent aan de Universiteit Gent en senior technisch leider voor verschillende nationale en internationale machine learning-projecten bij imec.
Bij ML2Grow zijn Joeri en zijn collega's ervan overtuigd dat AI de nieuwe elektriciteit is: een alomtegenwoordige technologie die oplossingen vanuit de achtergrond mogelijk maakt over verschillende sectoren. ML2Grow is van mening dat deze technologie niet exclusief zou moeten zijn voor grote technologiebedrijven en biedt daarom unieke, nieuwe manieren om de adoptiebarrière te verlagen en de terugverdientijd te verkorten voor bedrijven van alle groottes. Deze aanpak heeft geleid tot de succesvolle introductie van AI in verschillende marktsectoren voor meer dan 50 bedrijven.

Joeri Ruyssinck EN

During his PhD at Ghent University, he successfully applied machine learning in diverse settings: solving problems in healthcare, automation, manufacturing, energy and HVAC, engineering and biotechnology. His research has been published in several domain applications and has been patented. Prior to joining ML2Grow, he was co-lecturer at Ghent University and senior technical lead for several national and international machine learning projects at imec.At ML2Grow, Joeri and his colleagues are convinced AI is the new electricity: an omnipresent technology that empowers solutions from the background across verticals. ML2Grow believes this technology should not be exclusive to the bigger tech companies and therefore offers unique novel ways to decrease the adoption barrier and shorten the payback period for companies of all sizes. This approach has resulted in the successful introduction of AI across various market verticals for more than 50 companies."
