What started as an idea became four workshops, dozens of mentors and speakers, late-night build sprints, real MVPs, and one unforgettable finale ❤️
Over the past month, the CBS AI Academy brought together 60 ambitious students to explore what applied AI actually looks like in practice: from evaluation and prototyping to workflows, governance, and real-world implementation. The result was not just demos, but thoughtful, credible AI solutions designed for real business problems.
A massive thank you to everyone who helped make this possible: our partners, speakers, mentors, moderators, panelists, jury members, facilitators, volunteers, and every single participant who showed up with energy, curiosity, and ambition.
A very special thank you to VML MAP, our case sponsor and close collaboration partner throughout the academy. Your support, mentorship, and involvement helped shape the entire experience from beginning to end.
Thank you as well to Arnold Boon and Copenhagen Business School for supporting and believing in this initiative and in creating stronger bridges between students and industry.
Congratulations to all participating teams and especially our winning team, Group 7 🏆
Their winning solution, “MarkFlow,” tackled scalable localized content generation through a workflow-native AI system built for speed, governance, cultural relevance, and real-world usability.
And finally, thank you to the incredible CBS AI team behind the academy. This programme was built by students, for students, and none of this would have happened without the passion and hard work behind the scenes.

This is only the beginning 🚀
