Weâre excited to share our new AI Map. A select group of key figures in the AI ecosystem received an exclusive copy - including NVIDIAâs Country Manager, Marc Stampfli. Marcâs reaction? Surprise. He said he hadnât seen anything this comprehensive before. Almost every relevant player is on the map - exactly as we intended. No paid placements. No sponsorships. No Mickey Mouse. In fact, we removed many companies that talk about AI more than they actually do it. But Marc did find one small flaw: Hexagon Robotics was missing. Fair point! Thatâll be fixed in the next edition. If you want the full reference guide, reach out to me with your pitch or order it directly. It is limited. https://lnkd.in/e_ZzVzFz Credits: ETH AI Center Greater Zurich Area Blast Off Stefanie Guyer Daniel Naeff Yorick Oertle
