We are an AI Implementation Design Firm.
We bring together Design Thinking/Service Systems Design and AI.

Why we exist

We bridge the gap between non-technical business people and AI experts to work together. We enable anyone and any team to develop holistic AI solutions and apply AI.

Furthermore, we believe that non-tech decision-makers and non-tech users need to be included in the AI solution development to secure a safe, beneficial, and commercially viable AI solution.

How we aim to reach our mission

We developed the AI Design Sprint™ and believe this to be the right way for anyone and any team to approach AI. Because we are a small team, we can’t change the world by leading AI Design Sprints™, but by training many others. Our vision is to see a world where everyone leads AI Design Sprints™.

Location

33A is based in Copenhagen. Denmark is known for design and it’s one of the most digitalized countries, therefore it feels natural to bring design thinking and AI together here. From here we serve all people everywhere.

Our story

Michael developed the first version of the AI Design Sprint™ for his students to help them develop emerging technology concepts, including AI, for Danish companies. Since then the team at 33A developed the AI Design Sprint™ further, even forming three modules. Today we train people in the AI Design Sprint™ and constantly develop it further as technology is progressing quickly and different needs and topics for AI application arise.

Our philanthropic model

We dedicate 1% of our annual sales to support public educational institutions and students. This commitment is fulfilled through AI Design Sprint™ training and certification of student groups, and by directly engaging students in hands-on AI Design Sprint™ experiences.
