Bonn-based IT company selected to participate in a government-funded innovation trip focusing on Manufacturing and Physical AI
Bonn, 12 November 2026 – BusinessCode is heading to Silicon Valley and San Francisco. The Bonn-based IT company has successfully applied to participate in the AI Innovation Tour USA 2026, focusing on Manufacturing and Physical AI. Only twelve German companies have been selected to take part in the trip, which is funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy. From 30 November to 4 December 2026, Martin Bernemann, CEO / CTO of BusinessCode, will represent the company on site.
Organized by the German American Chamber of Commerce (GACC) in San Francisco, the innovation tour is aimed at German companies offering technologies and solutions in AI-driven process optimization, business intelligence, digital transformation, and automation. The program includes meetings with technology companies, start-ups, and research institutions, innovation workshops, and individual B2B meetings. Ahead of the trip, a workshop will help identify the specific challenges, questions, and interests of the participating companies.
For BusinessCode, the trip addresses key areas of the company’s ongoing development. For many years, BusinessCode has been developing customized software solutions for complex processes in logistics and industry. Artificial intelligence, automation, and the intelligent use of data are playing an increasingly important role in this work. The innovation tour offers an opportunity to explore the latest developments in a region where many new technologies and applications originate.
„AI is evolving at an extraordinary pace. Anyone who wants to stay at the forefront of these developments needs to actively explore new approaches and engage in direct dialogue,“ says Martin Bernemann. „For us, it is particularly interesting to understand which developments will become relevant to industry and logistics, and what insights and ideas we can bring back to our projects and customers.“
A particular focus of the trip is on Manufacturing and Physical AI. In addition to digital process optimization, the integration of artificial intelligence with the physical world is becoming increasingly important. This perspective is especially relevant for BusinessCode, as the company continues to expand its expertise at the intersection of IT, logistics, manufacturing, and automation.
