What a fantastic experience taking the stage at my first Bosch ConnectedWorld as Bosch CTO! I took the opportunity to share how software and AI are transforming our business. Software-defined systems have built the foundation, and AI is now unlocking an entirely new level of capabilities. At Bosch, we see this transformation across the board – from AI in our products, to AI-powered engineering, and now, AI in our factories. With data from more than 230 plants worldwide, we are scaling industrial AI to optimize operations and drive innovation. At the core of this transformation is agentic AI orchestration – our "Intelligence Layer" – where AI agents collaborate to manage complex tasks and workflows.  A new dimension of AI is emerging through advanced robotics, bringing intelligence into motion. By combining AI with Bosch's MEMS sensor technology, we enable robots with a human-like sense of touch, allowing them to handle even the most delicate objects with remarkable precision. As the global leader in MEMS sensors, Bosch is uniquely positioned to be at the forefront of this evolution. The energy on the opening day of Bosch ConnectedWorld was truly inspiring. It was the perfect setting to reinforce our commitment at Bosch: Turning technological innovation into tangible reality – We Make it Real! #BCW26
