Did you know? Every year, as a team, we go on a retreat for a few days. This year we went to the beautiful countryside of Catalunya. What we like about those team retreats: 👉 Great opportunity to strengthen ties as a team. 👉 Quiet time to reflect on the company's mission and vision surrounded by peaceful nature (and with low to zero phone signal!). 👉 Enjoying some hiking in the middle of the catalan hills, without the rain even stopping us! 👉 Bonding over cooking with limited cooking skills but it actually turned mostly good. 👉 Taking part in some medium to high competitiveness at board games. Guess who was the winner of the board game competition?? #teambuilding #investment #venturecapital #healthtech #didyouknow #catalunya #wearenina

"This gorgeous and imaginative campaign from French luxury goods maker Lancel dispels the misconception that generative AI produces mediocre work," writes Periódico PublicidAD - Periódico de Publicidad, Comunicación Comercial y Marketing. 💥 Made entirely with The Brandtech Group’s Gen AI marketing platform, Pencil ✏️, the series of whimsical images - depicting a dreamlike journey undertaken by a bellboy that begins in Paris and passes through Tuscany, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, India, Bali and Japan - is running throughout June and beyond on a range of social platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn. 👜 The Lancel team was able to generate insights and hundreds of potential images for the campaign, experiment and get performance predictions using Pencil. A final set of 72 assets (8 cities with 9 versions each) were generated - and no one had to jump on a plane or ship products. 🌎 This feat would be impossible without Gen AI as experimenting with so many different plans and ideas would have been too costly and time-consuming. Furthermore, flying photographic teams around the world to all the locations would obviously have been an immense logistical operation. The campaign is an example of how a brilliant human creative team is enhanced by and can deliver so much more with AI. “Initially, we were torn between excitement at this daring adventure and preconceived ideas about the role of AI,” explains Lancel Marketing Director Marine Olivier 💫 . “It was almost magical, and at the same time, we had a certain apprehension, like the fear of being replaced by the machine. But as we immersed ourselves in this collaboration, we quickly realized that the human element remained at the heart of everything. Together, we have achieved something remarkable. It was this synergy between human and machine that gave birth to a campaign imbued with dreams of elsewhere, humor and emotion.” 👇 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/gCKGd-mY #GenAI #Brandtech #AIpowered #FutureofAI

Why we are seeing great companies thrive, like Arkadia Space of my friend and fellow #DeepTech #WorkGroup of Startup Valencia member Francho García, and others like PLD Space, just to name a couple? Because the will impact beyond traditional space sectors, enhancing industries like retail, supply chains, and disaster mitigation. Lower costs and increased access to space technologies are expected to revolutionise various sectors, like the smartphones and cloud computing did. There are even companies cleaning the space, something unimaginable just a few years ago. It is definetly a vertical we have to (and we will) keep an eye at TRL+ Space is booming, it's really really hot. https://lnkd.in/daqsZPXr

I was honoured by the Royal Academy of Sciences for having invited me and Germán Lahera to speak about Artificial Intelligence, yesterday in Madrid. We explained how Spain could assume a global leadership position on #AI, hand in hand with innovative solutions such Dedomena AI and Qsimov. DEDOMENA, which means DATA in Greek, is an AI Platform with three pillars: 1. Generative AI that allows generating synthetic data that meets the same statistical distribution as the original data, making it essential to share data securely and comply with all data protection regulations. 2. Data Marketplace, where any person or company can monetize their data, or find the data they need to build their models, do analytics or testing, and feed AI-based applications. 3. AI Marketplace, with tons of Applets or Applications that encapsulate AI algorithms to solve numerous problems and use cases, and that are ready to be used in SaaS mode or consumed through their APIs. All this works with super-accelerated performance and without large server energy consumption, thanks to QSIMOV technology. #ArtificialIntelligence #GenAI #SyntheticData #DataMarket #AImarket #GreenAI #GDPR #DataSecurity #DataCompliance #AIplatform

In most cases, the product price or service justifies the work behind it. Companies that produce through scale economies without protecting human rights and the environment should not exist. In the medium/long run, we will all pay. #sdg #ods2030 #humanrights
