51% of German mid-sized companies use AI tools but 43% without any strategy. Employees work with ChatGPT, Copilot and others, while management has no visibility into the value being created for the company.

SilverSHIFT turns uncontrolled AI usage into real AI strategy. We analyze where AI is already in use, where knowledge is trapped in people’s heads, and where key-person dependencies are reducing company value. Then we build structures that work: AI governance, knowledge preservation, and platform deployment - GDPR and EU AI Act compliant.

Our core services:
• AI maturity & strategy consulting: status quo, roadmap, concrete ROI
• Knowledge preservation & AI platforms: turning institutional knowledge into AI-powered systems
• Japan-Germany Bridge: cross-border consulting, technical due diligence, post-merger integration

Founded by Dr.-Ing. Nils Schöche. 30+ years of industry experience, including 7 years leading innovation and business development in Japan. Member of the VDI committee “Interdisciplinary Committee Digital Transformation.”
