With the new "Banking AI Network" event format, adesso is creating a platform for experts from the banking sector who wish to strategically tap into the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI (GenAI) in particular. The event, to be held on 5 June 2025 in Frankfurt am Main, will focus on concrete application scenarios, best practices and innovations that pave the way for a smarter and more efficient banking of the future.

A flash survey commissioned by adesso SE shows that the digitalization plans set out in the coalition agreement meet with broad approval among decision-makers. However, respondents report a lack confidence when it comes to the speed of practical implementation of the measures and the resulting stimulus for the German economy. The higher the position of the managers surveyed, the greater their reservations. For the study, adesso surveyed a total of 400 German middle and senior managers and executives from various industries.

IT service provider adesso is further expanding its position in the field of data and analytics and has achieved the highest level in the Qlik partner programme with the status of “Qlik Elite Channel Partner”. By taking this step, adesso aims to intensify its cooperation with one of the leading providers in the field of data integration and analysis, while at the same time strengthening its joint commitment to AI-supported business solutions – especially with regard to the pioneering Qlik Talend Cloud.

Starting June 2025, the German Accessibility Improvement Act (Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz, BFSG) will oblige providers of digital services to implement binding accessibility requirements. Public institutions, companies, and their IT partners are therefore under pressure to review new and existing websites for digital accessibility and adapt them accordingly. A joint project between adesso and the district youth council Kreisjugendring (KJR) Neumarkt shows how this demand can be achieved in practice: an accessible website, developed with and for young people, that makes democratic education accessible – digitally, inclusively, and in a methodologically sound way.
