Internal AI Center-of-Excellence

Among the most interesting management frameworks of AI development is the emergence on internal AI Centers-of-Excellence. Husqvarna is a Swedish global industry leader of power products and robotics, with a product portfolio ranging from forestry and landscaping consumer equipment to industrial scale solutions. With autonomous operations being a cornerstone of Husqvarna’s strategy, the AI lab was established to enable the creation of such systems.

Girish is the director of AI Lab at Husqvarna. Tasked with the goal of figuring out for the big data masses collected throughout Husqvarna’s operations, Girish oversaw the establishment and management of AI resources and working models within Husqvarna. As a result, Husqvarna is now running one of the most advanced – and successful – internal AI COE:s in the Nordics.

Tune in to discover what Girish views as the golden ratio of early AI projects initiated vs. deployed with their ASD Scoring, how Husqvarna’s AI management has matured over the years and how exploratory vs. tangible AI initiatives should be approached.
