XU Exponential Projects

AI BIZ is an ambitious Erasmus+ co-funded project with a duration of 12 months. Led by Minleap S.R.L. (Spain), the project is partnered by XU Exponential University of Applied Sciences (Germany) and CEBelgium. At the University, this project is managed by Prof. Dr. Petyo Budakov, ensuring a strong contribution to this innovative initiative.
