FoodAIcademy
Understanding and Applying AI
Artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming the economy and society and is creating enormous opportunities, particularly in the food industry. Through a free training program, the Food Cluster is helping companies harness this potential. The FFG’s “FoodAIcademy” training program teaches the fundamentals, explores various areas of application, and provides step-by-step guidance on how to implement AI in a company’s own operations.
“Participants learn how AI can be applied in practice in production, quality control, logistics, and product development. The focus is clearly on practical application: In workshops, they develop their own use cases and apply what they’ve learned directly to their own operational realities,”
explains LC Project Manager Dominik Gschaider.
The training program is aimed at employees of companies in the food industry who want to strengthen their skills and make better use of AI in their own work environment. Whether SMEs or large corporations—the content is specifically tailored to the training needs of the participating companies. This results in a customized seminar that delivers real added value.
Several training days are planned in Steyr and Linz. The specific dates are currently being coordinated with Steyr University of Applied Sciences and the participating partner companies.
The Food Cluster coordinates the dates and serves as the central on-site contact point during the training days.
