2-Day Mini-Conference

How do you build artificial intelligence solutions that can run on ultra-low-power devices – all the way out at the edge of the network?

That’s what we’ll dive into at the mini-conference TinyML Days, taking place on June 16–17 at Aarhus University.

It’s two FREE, intensive days featuring:

• Insights into new research and technology trends
• Hands-on workshops (with hardware you get to take home)
• Great conversations with researchers, developers, and practitioners
• A strong focus on practical applications of TinyML – e.g., in sensors, wearables, and other edge devices where power, space, and computing capacity are limited

If you work with AI, embedded systems, IoT, or are simply curious about what’s happening in the field right now – this is the place to be.

The conference will be held in English, and there’s an option to sign up for a networking dinner on June 16.

Adress: Aarhus Universitet, Building 5122 room 122, Finlandsgade 20, 8200 Aarhus N

At this invite-only networking meeting for corporate venturing entities, will we discuss three main areas: 1)  Accelerating innovation cycles, 2) Creating a culture of internal startups, open and external innovation, and leadership buy-in, and 3) Transparency in CVC portfolios and investment strategies vs. maintaining competitive edge. Interested in participating? Contact Mette Haugaard at mettehaugaard@thelink.dk.

Kan man lancere et produkt for bare 10.000 kr.? Det spørgsmål besluttede Nick Traulsen fra The Marketing Guy sig for at finde svar på.

I 2024 satte han sig for at skrive en bog, få den trykt og sælge den via en webshop. Med et budget på 10.000 kr. – inkl. udstyr og annoncer – skulle salget sparkes i gang på 30 dage. Uden hjælp fra sit team.

I dette oplæg fortæller Nick om hele processen: hvilke annoncer han kørte, hvilke platforme og værktøjer han brugte – og hvordan han prioriterede hver eneste krone. Du får konkrete eksempler og inspiration til, hvordan du selv kan markedsføre et produkt med et stramt budget – og hvilke taktikker der rent faktisk virker.

Til sidst afslører han naturligvis, om eksperimentet lykkedes – eller om han endte med 2.000 usolgte bøger og en tom konto.

Program:

14:30: Velkomst

14:45: Oplæg fra Nick Traulsen

15:30: Netværk

15:45: Tak for i dag
