Launch of the GENIAL4KMU project: Advanced AI solutions for SMEs

We are pleased to announce the official launch of our GENIAL4KMU project. This project aims to develop an advanced Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) system that effectively harnesses unstructured data assets in organizations.

GENIAL4KMU leverages the latest advances in Artificial Intelligence, in particular large language models (LLMs), to provide companies with accurate and contextualized data processing. Organized in collaboration with our partner, the University of Hamburg Hub of Computing & Data Science, the project is divided into two phases:

First phase: Structured data
Here, parameter-efficient fine-tuning of LLMs is carried out first, followed by the development of a RAG system for processing structured data.

Second phase: Unstructured data
In this phase, the system will be extended to unstructured company data, including further fine-tuning and integration into the RAG system.

The developed solutions will be continuously evaluated and transferred into demonstrators to ensure that they meet the highest standards and meet the needs of SMEs.

In summary, GENIAL4KMU represents a significant step in the application of AI technologies with the aim of sustainably increasing the efficiency and competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises.
