The London School of Economics (LSE) Generate group is organizing another event in Berlin, this time together with BCG X, the Boston Consulting Group’s tech build and design unit that brings together more than 3,000 technologists, data scientists, designers and entrepreneurs. Readers of this Carl Kruse Blog are warmly invited. We participated in the original LSE Generate launch event back in May 2025.
The event is titled “The Hard Part of AI Deployment Isn’t the AI” to take place on 23 November at 18:30 at BCG’s Berlin offices.
We’ll be joined by Sina Stöhr, Partner at BCG X, and Erika Arnold, Director, to explore the challenges of deploying AI in practice, particularly the organizational and operational hurdles beyond the technology itself.
LSE Generate is looking to bring together a mix of people with an interest in innovation, including founders, researchers, engineers and others working in the field.

Participation is free, with registration subject to approval and the address provided after registration.
As AI models become increasingly powerful and accessible, the real challenge is making them work at scale. BCG estimates that 70% of successful AI transformation efforts depend on people, processes and organizational change – not technology. So what does it actually take to turn AI capabilities into measurable business impact?
What we’ll explore:
Drawing on real-world examples of AI transformation, we’ll explore:
- Beyond the pilot: Why promising AI initiatives fail to scale.
- Rethinking workflows: Why AI adoption requires more than new tools.
- Delivering impact: How leading companies turn AI into measurable productivity gains.
- Expect practical insights, an interactive discussion and the opportunity to connect with Berlin’s entrepreneurial and tech community.
Cheers!
