The ada Future Lab – AI Innovation Lab for Solving your Business Challenges

Im ada Future Lab, dem KI Innovation Lab, entstehen in maximal 12 Wochen konkrete, KI-gestützte Lösungen für Ihre Organisation – von der Idee bis zum Einsatz.

Was ist das Future Lab?

The Future Lab is an implementation accelerator for organizations and teams that want to achieve concrete results faster. In a maximum of 12 weeks, your team will develop a ready-to-use solution for a real challenge – with a clear structure, supported by AI. Instead of concepts, prototypes are created; instead of ideas, ready-to-use and tested solutions.

Many companies recognize the potential of AI – but often lack the time, resources, or methodological approach to implement it. The Future Lab closes this gap: it turns your employees into active creators and brings innovation where it matters – into your business and your teams' everyday work.

How the ada Future Lab Works

Process

1 - Imagine
Orientation & Problem Analysis

In the first phase, your team identifies the core problems in your business area and defines the specific challenge they want to tackle. They develop "How-Might-We" questions and, through problem analysis and precise goal-setting, ensure that the right questions for AI utilization are asked.

2 - Ideate
Idea Generation & Validation

Based on clearly defined challenges, your team develops various solution approaches that are validated and prioritized through user feedback and AI-powered validation. Close collaboration with your stakeholders ensures that only the most promising solution moves forward to implementation.

3 - Implement
Prototyping & Execution

In the final phase, your team creates a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that is tested against real business impact KPIs. This ensures that the AI solution is practical, measurable, and market-ready.
