Value-driven AI | AIE.F Europe x SAP | Community Talks #6
AIE.F Europe and SAP Labs Bulgaria partner up for an evening of exploring practical AI applications across various use cases!
But how do we validate those ideas and measure their value?
Session 1:
AI-Driven Idea Validation for Enterprise: How Agentic AI is Reshaping Innovation with Data-Driven Insights
Learn how SAP evaluates new ideas with their "man-in-the-middle" tool. Georgi Yankov (Technical Dev Lead, SAP Business AI) and Violeta Yotova (Senior Software Engineer, SAP Business AI) will demonstrate how their system assesses potential value before investing resources, helping teams focus on promising opportunities.
Session 2:
AI-Powered Agricultural Innovation: Estimating Sunflower Plant Density with Drone Imagery
See how SAP Intelligent Agriculture improves farming through data analysis. Pavel Genevski (Head of Applied Research, SAP Labs Bulgaria) will present their work with Sofia University on counting sunflower plants using drone photos - solving real challenges farmers face daily.
Mayada Khatib (Senior Data Scientist, SAP) will be available for questions related to this session.
Session 3:
AI's Impact on Business & Community
In a fireside chat, Iliya Krastev (CEO of A Data Pro, Board Member at AIBEST and BRAIT) will discuss how AI is changing business operations, what this means for jobs and skills, and how companies can adapt thoughtfully.

Here's how it all started, told by our co-founder Yavor Belakov:
I just came back from a business trip to San Francisco and I'm mind blown!
Not by the state-of-tech… but by the people. People in SF are participating in AI communities like crazy - meeting up all the time, exchanging knowledge and experience. No wonder they are a few years ahead of everyone else. There are between 2 and 6 AI events you can choose from DAILY. The average week in Bulgaria has 0 AI events.
After coming back, I received this message:
Wanna be our first Chapter lead for AI Engineer Foundation's Bulgaria?
Sasha Sheng, Founder of AI Engineer Foundation (San Francisco)
I guess you see where this is going?
Yesssss - let's build a strong Bulgarian AI community.
Let's be up to date with the dynamically changing AI landscape.
And let's do it together - Bulgarian AI engineers, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts. Not alone but with the support of one of the most important communities in San Francisco - AI Engineer Foundation (endorsed by LangChain, Llama Index, AutoGPT, E2B, Postman).
