AI Working Group - Kick-off
November 19, 2025
In the kick-off session, we focused on the topics of AI organization, governance, implementation strategies, and data/security. How is AI “organized” in a corporation? – using the examples of Swisscom and Zurich – two experience reports.
Agenda:
Welcome / Objectives of the AI Working Group
2 exciting examples as a basis for discussion
Silvan Lohri, Head AI Transformation Management, Swisscom
Dr. Christian B. Westermann, Group Head of AI | Group Technology & Operations, Zurich Versicherung
Discussion:“Where do the members present stand on AI?”, “How can AI implementation succeed in the company?”, “What challenges need to be overcome?”
Collection of topics and joint prioritization for future working group meetings: What specifically would you like to learn? Which cases and AI application areas would interest you? Which formats should we consider for upcoming sessions?
