Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The future of Edge AI, with Tomoko Yokoi
Q: Are we seeing edge AI take hold in the B2B space, perhaps in manufacturing or mining?
Yes, there is growing interest in deploying edge AI in industrial contexts to improve reliability and responsiveness, though widespread adoption hinges on throughput, resilience, and integration with existing systems.
The future of Edge AI, with Tomoko Yokoi
Q: Do edge models have less capabilities, and what are the practical limits?
Edge models trade some complexity for efficiency and require careful design to ensure robustness and scalability, often focusing on real-time inference while leaving heavier training and updates to the cloud or hybrid approaches.
The future of Edge AI, with Tomoko Yokoi
Q: Could you explain intuitively how these models work on the edge and whether they are smaller in size?
They are typically optimized to run on local devices with smaller footprints and are designed to process data locally to reduce latency, though they may not match the full capability of centralized models; the key is a smart division of tasks between edge and cloud.
What if Europe’s biggest risk isn’t war – but running out of power?
Q: What leadership competencies do you need to have in the organization to navigate fact and fiction, policy agendas, and community resistance?
A leader must understand stakeholders, read the room, coordinate coalitions, and be willing to expose the truth and endure political pushback while keeping focus on long-term objectives.
Benefits by design: Novonesis CEO’s strategy for sustainable growth
Q: How does Novonesis balance rapid growth with culture integration post-merger?
They maintained a clear focus on customer continuity, staged integration, and a shared home culture, while empowering regional leadership and preserving the best aspects of both legacy companies to avoid disruption during the transition.
