    No alt text provided for this image

    “The launch of ChatGPT will be remembered in business history as a milestone in which artificial intelligence moved from many narrow applications to a more universal tool that can be applied in very different ways. While the technology still has many shortcomings (e.g., hallucinations, biases, and non-transparency), it’s improving rapidly and is showing great promise. It’s therefore a good time to start thinking about the competitive implications that will inevitably arise from this new technology.”

  • The Tesseract Academy December Newsletter: How C-Suite Leaders Can Benefit From Understanding Tokenomics

    The Tesseract Academy December Newsletter: How C-Suite Leaders Can Benefit From Understanding Tokenomics

    Understanding advanced technologies like blockchain and tokenomics has become critical for C-suite executives and decision-makers in any organization.

    Tokenomics combines the concepts of tokens and economics to help businesses grow with blockchain technology. Tokens can be considered like a currency while tokenomics dictate the policy for issuing those tokens.

     With the help of a solid tokenomics policy, businesses can ensure the success of their token-based projects. Businesses can develop token economies that better reflect market needs.

    Let’s find out the five significant advantages of tokenomics for top-level executives and CEOs👇

    ✅ Align Consumer And Business Goals: More community-based solutions can be developed by your business with the help of tokenomics. By scaling tokenomics, the profits will also be distributed throughout the token holders in the network.

    ✅ Create Improved Incentive Systems: Every source of value created by your organization can be tokenized. It can be used to create incentive systems for all the stakeholders in the token network. Tokenomics allows decision-makers to develop incentive systems that are more reliable and trustworthy. 

    ✅ CEOs Can Adopt Full Cost Accounting: Blockchain allows your business to establish systems for reflecting both the social and economic costs of any project. Tokens can be coded to show the sourcing of raw materials and create more reliable systems.

    ✅ Improved Governance Structure: CEOs and decision-makers can benefit from implementing tokenomics in the governance structure of the organization. The participants of the token network have the power to suggest changes through voting and how your projects will evolve.

    ✅ Increase Compliance: Tokenomics allows your business to increase compliance with various laws and regulations. It establishes the rules for how the supply and demand of tokens are created.

    C-suite executives can implement tokenomics to improve business governance and compliance while aligning the goals with consumer demands❗

    On that note, The Tesseract Academy are delighted to have just recently launched a new Tokenomics course for CEOs and decision makers which is absolutely FREE!

    You can find out more about it and register below.

  • The Tesseract Academy October Newsletter: Data Maturity, is your business dealing with loads of unorganized data and faces difficulty utilizing data to drive growth?

    The Tesseract Academy October Newsletter: Data Maturity, is your business dealing with loads of unorganized data and faces difficulty utilizing data to drive growth?

    Data maturity is the level of sophistication of an organization in managing its data. It’s a process that requires not just a commitment and investment from the company, but also from the people who work there.

    Data Maturity consists of three key stages:

    • Stage One: Data Governance – It’s about setting up policies and procedures for how to manage information and how to govern data access. 
    • Stage Two: Data Quality Management- This focuses on ensuring that all information is up-to-date and accurate, as well as making sure that it conforms to company standards for formatting and naming conventions. 
    • Stage Three: Data Analytics – This involves using analytical techniques to derive insights from raw data sets.

    According to MIT reports, organizations that have not achieved data maturity waste 50% of their time on problems like unorganized data and monotonous data quality. Data maturity refers to the level of any organization in utilizing the data collected through different channels. 

    Here are four winning strategies that can put your business on the path to achieving data maturity 

    1) Identify Relevant Business Problems: 

    The first step toward achieving data maturity is identifying the relevant business problems that need to be solved. Data can be collected and analyzed based on these pain points. 

    In order to identify relevant business problems, we should first understand the company’s goals and values. We need to know what they value and what they think is important. The business problem will be different for every company, but there are some universal problems that everyone faces. 

    2) Aligned Data Maturity Model: 

    Another crucial strategy for successfully using data is to align the data maturity models with the business goals. Many organizations mistake using generic models that don’t provide the required results. 

    The Aligned Data Maturity Model helps organizations understand their current level of maturity and provides guidance on how to get to the next level. It also provides examples of success stories from companies that have adopted data-driven decision making, which can be used as a case study for similar organizations.

    3) Empowering Your Data Team: 

    Create an empowered data analytics team to improve data maturity. Set different metrics and KPIs to measure the performance of your analytics team. 

    To empower your data team, you should first provide them with a good working environment by giving them enough resources and tools they need to do their job efficiently. You should also encourage collaboration between different departments in order to create a culture of trust and transparency, which will lead to better communication between teams. Finally, you should provide regular training sessions so that your employees can keep up with technology changes and new developments in their field.

    4) Operational Excellence: 

    Data maturity requires using data for operational excellence. The collected data must be utilized to promote innovation and creativity for becoming a data-mature organization.

  • The Tesseract Academy September 2022 Newsletter: Five Crucial Tips To Choose The Right AI Vendor For Your Business

    The Tesseract Academy September 2022 Newsletter: Five Crucial Tips To Choose The Right AI Vendor For Your Business

    Artificial Intelligence (AI) can take your business to the next level. AI vendors do not just develop and implement AI tools, but they also provide insights and consulting services for companies who want to implement AI in their business.

    However, many companies have difficulty finding the right AI vendor for their business needs. This can lead to delays in the implementation of AI technology for improving major business functions.

    The best AI vendors are the ones that have a strong understanding of the company’s business needs and provide a customized solution.

    Do you want to discover the five crucial tips to find the perfect AI vendor that fits your business needs?

    Here are five points to keep in mind:

    📍 Value For Business:

    Choose the right AI vendor by learning how AI adds value to your business. AI is not a replacement for human skills, but it does add value to your business. AI can be used for optimisation and automation, and it can be used to generate content. It can also provide insights into customer behaviour, increase the efficiency of operations and help with the decision-making process.

    The key to maximizing value is understanding how AI can be used in the context of your specific business objectives.

    📍 Testimonials And Case Studies:

    The previous testimonials for AI vendors or the case studies provided by them based on previous work are crucial for finding the right AI vendor.

    📍 Technology Platforms:

    Consider what technology platforms are used by the AI vendor for providing the AI solutions. Open source programs will improve the flexibility and scalability of your AI program in the future.

    📍 Customized Or Off-the-shelf Solution:

    If your business is trying to solve a unique problem and no off-the-shelf AI solutions are available, then try customized AI solutions through your vendor. The best AI vendors are the ones that have a strong understanding of the company’s business needs and provide a customized solution.

    If a company is looking for a customized AI solution, they can find an AI vendor that can provide it. The experts will know the best way to create the custom AI solution and how to integrate it into the company’s system. They will also know how to train the machine learning algorithm that will be used in the solution so that it provides accurate results. Alternatively, if you have enough data and resources, you can create your own custom AI solutions from scratch.

    📍 Learn About The Team:

    Find out more about the team at your potential AI vendor regarding their previous experience with AI solutions.

    Infographic: Choosing the right AI/data science vendor

    As we know choosing the right AI/data science vendor is no easy task. A wrong choice can cost you months in time and millions in money. That’s why we created the following infographic to help businesses out and help them on their AI journey.

  • The Tesseract Academy July 2022 Newsletter: How Distributed Ledgers Can Help Your Business

    The Tesseract Academy July 2022 Newsletter: How Distributed Ledgers Can Help Your Business

    Do you want to find out what distributed ledgers are and how they can benefit your business?

    Distributed ledgers are a technology that allows businesses to have financial databases that are synchronized and shared across multiple sites. They are based on blockchain technology and can help prevent cyberattacks because of their decentralized nature.

    They are considered a relatively new technology that is used to keep records of transactions and protect the financial data of a business. Being decentralized, means that they do not rely on a single central server. This is why it is often called the “world’s largest continuously growing list of records”.

    A distributed ledger is a public record of digital transactions and data, which are stored in no particular order across many computers. The transactions and data can be anything from cryptocurrency transactions to other monetary exchanges to property titles or even votes.

    The basic concept behind distributed ledgers is that there is no single point of failure, which makes them both reliable and tamper-proof.

    Four ways Distributed Ledgers can Benefit Businesses:

    • Secure And Tamper Proof:

    Once the records have been written in the distributed ledgers, they can’t be altered by anyone. This feature makes the distributed ledgers secure and safe from any tampering. 

    • No Need For Third Party:

    In many cases, distributed ledgers remove the need for any third parties to operate the ledgers. Less involvement from third parties saves them time and costs for your business. Its application in the supply chain business allows results to be directly written by sensors and saves time.

    • Completely Decentralized:

    These ledgers are entirely decentralized, and the databases can be located in different geographical locations, which reduces cyberattacks.

    • Highly Transparent:

    Another benefit for businesses is that distributed ledgers allow more transparency in the viewing and sharing information.

    Exclusive Workshop: Blockchain for Business Processes with Dr. Marcel Müller (Multiple Dates Available)

    No alt text provided for this image

    Blockchain is a distributed ledger technology that is changing the world. It is a digital and decentralized system that records transactions and stores them in a public ledger. Blockchain provides an efficient way of storing data, with the ability to reduce or eliminate transaction fees and middlemen, as well as provide security for the information stored.

    Unfortunately, it still largely remains an esoteric technology, that is not understood outside of technical circles.

    In this workshop, we demystify the world of blockchain, explaining what are the amazing opportunities that it presents, and how businesses can benefit from it.

    This workshop is designed by blockchain experts, for non-experts.

    The workshop will be conducted by Dr. Marcel Müller, a German deep tech entrepreneur, researcher, and consultant. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science on engineering methods to create trust-aware business processes with distributed ledger technologies and authored more than a dozen peer-reviewed scientific publications. Marcel has worked on enterprise blockchain projects in supply chain management, energy, and finance and is the founder of KnowledgeX.
