AI momentum in the Mittelstand

AI momentum in the Mittelstand 36 % of German companies now use AI, this is nearly double last year’s number. That’s the strongest growth Bitkom has ever recorded. But: 47 % are only planning or discussing it, and many still lack digital basics like proper data infrastructure or document automation. The gap is widening: Leaders integrate AI across workflows Followers stay stuck in “pilot purgatory” Some wait for clearer rules while others automate faster 💡 Our takeaway: AI adoption isn’t the challenge anymore but strategic implementation is. That’s where we come in: At AI Phase, we help German SMEs move from experimentation to execution! 👉 Let’s make AI work for your business, not just around it. 🔗 Source in the comments #AIPhase #ArtificialIntelligence #GermanMittelstand #DigitalTransformation #Innovation #AIAdoption #BusinessStrategy
