We are thrilled to announce that the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action has approved funding for a 30-month collaborative research project with our longstanding industry partner, eschbach, under the Central Innovation Program for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (ZIM).

The newly funded project aims to develop advanced AI-driven multilingual search and recommendation algorithms tailored to handle the process industry’s unique terminology and language conventions. The enhanced AI capabilities will significantly elevate the Smart Search functionality of eschbach’s flagship product, Shiftconnector, by enabling seamless searches and recommendations across multiple languages. This innovation is particularly vital for global organizations utilizing Shiftconnector in production facilities worldwide.

eschbach and GippLab have collaborated successfully on research and development projects since 2015. Our joint efforts won multiple prestigious awards for product improvements and benefited the research community. This newly secured grant will mark a new chapter in our collaboration, supporting critical research, data science, and software development roles at both eschbach and GippLab.
