What if engineers could design hardware just by talking, while AI agents handled the heavy lifting?

In this episode of Capgemini’s Data‑powered Innovation Jam, we sit down with Moritz Meier, Founder & CEO of Synera, to explore how generative AI and multi‑agent systems are transforming engineering. From BMW car parts designed in minutes to AI systems collaborating like human teams, Moritz shares real-world breakthroughs, hard lessons on trust and transparency, and a bold vision for the future.

We cover AI copilots for engineers, faster time‑to‑market, German engineering rigor vs. Silicon Valley speed, and why tomorrow’s engineers will focus less on tools and more on judgment.

🎧 A must‑listen for anyone shaping the future of data, AI, and innovation.

This season, we go global, exploring how data fuels innovation at the intersection of technology, culture, music, and society. Hosts Robert Engels and Marie Jansen kick things off with a fresh perspective on what 2026 really means: not just AI and high tech, but ethics, psychology, geopolitics, sustainability, and the human rhythms behind the data.

From encrypted computing to global automation, from Milan’s disco influence to Mumbai’s urban pulse, each episode is a jam session, less documentation, more authentic insight. Expect sharp thinking, global voices, fun facts, and a beat that keeps the conversation moving.

Because data without culture is just noise. Let’s find the signal together.

Join us by the virtual fireplace for the final Data-powered Innovation Jam episode of 2025! In this special holiday edition, our hosts swap ugly Christmas sweater stories, debate favorite festive tunes (from punk to glam rock), and reflect on a whirlwind year in AI and data innovation.

From breakthroughs in autonomous agents and digital twins to the hype scalers that dominated LinkedIn, we explore what truly mattered in 2025 and what’s next for 2026. Expect candid insights, a few laughs, and even a philosophical detour into the future of coding and AI roles.

As one of our hosts, Ron, signs off for retirement, we raise a glass to realism, creativity, and game-changing ideas that actually deliver value.

Tune in for nostalgia, predictions, and plenty of holiday cheer.
