The Data & AI Design Bench is an interactive platform that brings real-time strategy development to your training. You’ll work with pre-designed templates on Miro Board, turning theory into practical insights you can apply immediately.
You don’t just learn what to do—you’ll experience how to do it.
How it Works:
Immediate Application: Practice with real-world use cases you can adapt to your business.
Interactive Tools: Use ready-made templates to solve real problems in real time.
Hands-On Learning: Alternate between 45-minute lectures and exercises, ensuring balanced learning and action.
Collaboration: Work together on Miro, exploring data use cases and building strategies with peers.
Why It Stands Out:
Action-Oriented: Every session moves you towards a data-driven strategy and understanding.
Adaptable: Method and canvases fit any industry, ensuring flexibility for your needs.
Practical Results: Leave with actionable strategic knowledge, ready to design your data & AI business.
With the Design Bench, you won’t just learn—you’ll do.
“The seminar offers a perfect introduction to the topic of data strategy. Due to the small group sizes, it is highly interactive, and the theoretical content is made extremely tangible and applicable through practical exercises. I particularly appreciated the many examples that remain memorable and keep the learning present even weeks later.”
Meike Bitzer

at Torben, Lucie und die gelbe Gefahr (TLGG)
“The seminars with Datentreiber are particularly valuable for our analytics team. In the Workshops on Data Thinking & Data Strategy, the team engages deeply with the topics, discusses them, and finds solutions. The combination of theory, practical examples, and in-house implementation is perfectly coordinated. Throughout the seminar series, a high level of professional execution is evident, and the broad expertise and experience make it a challenging, exciting, and motivating training.”
