The Carl Kruse Blog extends two invitations for artificial intelligence summits in Berlin for the month of June.
The first invite is from the Wharton Club, which invites readers of the Carl Kruse Blog to a special evening on Artificial Intelligence at the Merantix AI Campus in Berlin.
The conference is titled “AI beyond Claude and ChatGPT – real-world examples of how AI is already transforming existing industries and creating entirely new ones.”
In an inspiring conversation, our host for the evening, Adrian Locher, will share his insights on this important topic.
Adrian is Co-Founder and General Partner of Merantix Capital. An economist by training and an engineer at heart, he is also a serial entrepreneur, builder, and investor in AI. Having helped build and scale more than 20 companies, Adrian brings a unique perspective on the future of AI and its real-world applications.
Merantix Capital is a Berlin-based venture capital firm and part of Merantix, a group of companies and initiatives dedicated to advancing AI in Europe.
We look forward to welcoming you for an engaging and thought-provoking evening, followed by the opportunity for meaningful discussion and exchange with Adrian and fellow guests.

Registration is offered at two different rates: one for members of the Wharton Club of Germany and Austria e.V. (WCGA) and one for non-members.

The second invite comes from The London School of Economics (LSE) Generate project, which is organizing The Better World Summit: Responsible AI for Europe’s Next Tech Leap together with the Google AI Center in Berlin.
The one-day summit sits at the intersection of responsible AI, European competitiveness, and founder-led innovation. As part of LSE’s Global AI Founder Programme, the event brings together LSE academics, Google leaders, leading alumni innovators, AI experts and public policy makers from Berlin and across Europe to address questions as:
- How can Europe harness its expertise to become a leader in the AI race?
• How do we defend privacy, free expression, and democratic integrity in an AI-first world?
• How can founders build responsibly while remaining globally competitive?
A few of the speakers include:
- Professor Youngjin Yoo (LSE)
• Slav Petrov, VP Research at Google DeepMind
• Hannah Leach, Partner at Antler
• Clemens Rawert, Founder of Langfuse
• Dame Julia Black, former interim president of LSE
With governments increasingly backing entrepreneurship and Europe possessing formidable strengths in ethics, regulation, research excellence, and public trust, the summit explores how the continent can position itself as the world leader in ethical AI, placing itself as the home of responsible innovation and business growth.
