Our colleagues Florian Löber and Dr Moritz Kompenhans had the opportunity of attending the VDMA European Summit in Amsterdam, where the current state and future of the mechanical and plant engineering industry in Europe were at the center of discussions. 💡   Key topics included the current geopolitical challenges, the related restructuring of business operations, and pressure for digital and AI-driven innovations.   To keep pace, companies must adapt and restructure, requiring new skill sets and expertise within their workforce, which is hindered by the ongoing shortage of skilled professionals.   d-fine helps companies address these challenges by developing effective solutions: 👉 We help realign business processes by applying digital methods and implementing agile, resilient strategies to keep companies well-positioned in a rapidly changing market. 👉 We help businesses stay competitive by identifying and implementing cutting-edge AI use cases, particularly in the fast-evolving industrial AI sector. 👉 We leverage data-driven HR strategies to identify top talent, uncover skill gaps, and drive targeted recruitment efforts, building a competitive and future-ready workforce.   Many thanks to the VDMA for organizing such a great event and to Siemens, ASML, SKF Group, ENGEL, and others for their insightful presentations.   #dfine #dfineImpact #VDMA #Machinery #IndustrialAI #VDMASummit #Transformation #Innovation #Manufacturing #EU

On March 8, we celebrated International Women's Day, and, of course, d-fine was involved! 🎉 We hosted and attended several events. Here are some examples.   Our activities started with the "PANDA Dinner Club" at our Hamburg office on March 4. In collaboration with the PANDA | The Women Leadership Network, the event welcomed 35 to 40 participants for an evening filled with networking and discussions, including talks on topics such as digitalization, data analytics, and AI in business. Our colleagues Janina Erb, Dr Sophia Bremm, Dr Rebekka Höing and Nadja Schuster were part of the event in the "Hafencity".   On March 13, we attended the Microsoft event in Munich. About 130 participants were offered a varied program, including presentations by MS executives on the topic "Investing in our future – enabling, innovate", a talk on the promotion and development of women in the modern workplace, round tables on career advancement and how AI influences the working world for women. Our d-fine team, consisting of Johanna Schreier, Dr. Ariane C. Boehm, and Moritz Sohns, represented us there. In addition, there were other events such as the "Women in Data Science" conference or our "Women's Day: Case Event" and "d-fine Date Special".

BaFin's New Guidelines: Is Your Adverse Media Screening Ready? With BaFin’s updated guidelines (“AuAs”), adverse media screening (AMS) is becoming essential for financial institutions. Detecting ML/TF risks through AMS requires a smart, efficient approach to achieve appropriate precision while reducing false positives. Best practices include: 1️⃣   AI-driven screening tools to filter out irrelevant hits and support human analysts 2️⃣  Context-aware analysis to distinguish between significant risks and outdated/unverified news 3️⃣   Integration with monitoring systems and customer risk ratings for a holistic risk view Regulatory scrutiny is tightening. Ensuring your AMS is compliant, effective, and efficient will be a crucial pillar of a robust AML/CTF framework. #dfine #dfineImpact #dfineInternational #AML #BaFin #AuAs #AFC

We are proud of the part we play within this sector and look forward to continuing to build relationships and add value to organisations.”   #dfine #dfineUK #dfineInternational #MCA #ManagementConsulting
