Berlin, 24.6.2025. The AIoTwin consortium is on the road again shortly after the 3rd Summer School.
Fraunhofer FOKUS, one of Germany’s leading institutes for applied research in ICT, organized the Business Development & Innovation Transfer Workshop to foster the commercialization of Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) innovations developed within the AIoTwin project. A full-day focused workshop placed special emphasis on exploring the business potential of the consortium’s AIoT middleware, offering insights into technology transfer, market readiness, and commercialization strategies.
The one-day workshop featured a series of targeted presentations and collaborative challenges, fostering discussion and practical reflection on business development and innovation transfer strategies. Topics included:
-
Lean Canvas for structuring and validating AIoT business ideas
-
Technology Readiness Level (TRL), Market Readiness (MRL), and Product Readiness (PRL) assessments
-
Business model design and approaches for real-world implementation
Participants gained a deeper understanding of how to translate AIoT research into viable products and services. They left with validated business concepts, clearer market positioning, and concrete next steps for implementation.
