Dear readers,

our recent study on the current state of AI transformation, presented in this issue of our CxO News, reveals that top and middle management have loaded the agenda for 2024 with measures to increase AI adoption. Budgets have been increased by an average of 30 percent to meet financial requirements. But is that sufficient? How do investments lead to real benefits? Is there perhaps a kind of "blueprint" for successful AI transformations?

Find out more in the detailed study report, in the expert contributions – and gain exclusive insights into the AI initiatives of Google Cloud Germany, E.ON and TeamBank.

I wish you an enlightening read.
