Due to high interest and full capacity during the first training cycle, a second cycle of the educational program “Basics of Artificial Intelligence for Industry and Business” was held, aimed at micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises from Bosnia and Herzegovina, within the AI FORWARD project.

The Innovation Center Banja Luka successfully conducted the trainings on December 2 and 9 at the Innovation Center premises in a hybrid format. Some participants attended in person, while a significant number joined online, allowing greater accessibility and enabling companies from different parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina to participate.

During the trainings, participants had the opportunity to learn about the basic concepts of artificial intelligence, practical examples of AI applications in industry and business, and ways to improve business processes through AI-based digital tools.

The strong interest and active participation of companies further confirmed the relevance and practical value of the AI FORWARD program, as well as the need to continue strengthening the capacities of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises in digital transformation.

The AI FORWARD project is implemented with the financial support of the European Union and the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany (BMZ), under the EU Private Sector Development initiative – EU4PSD, which is part of the broader GIZ SEDEP program, with additional funding from the Swiss Government.
