MediaMarktSaturn and Dishbrain launch first award for artificial intelligence in the user sector
MediaMarktSaturn and the AI hub Dishbrain are taking off with the introduction of the "Dishbrain Awards". Unlike previous awards, the new award focuses for the first time on practical benefits as well as intelligent and user-friendly AI solutions for end consumers and small and medium-sized enterprises. Prizes will be awarded for ideas and application examples that make everyday life easier, more efficient and more cost-effective and solve complex problems. The application phase begins in fall 2024.
"MediaMarktSaturn has been supporting customers with technical innovations for over 40 years. It is therefore our duty to show them which AI solutions make sense for them and how they can positively change their lives. We want to help ensure that the use of AI applications progresses quickly and becomes a natural part of everyone's life. With the Dishbrain Award, we not only want to honor outstanding innovations, but also create a platform for new ideas and exchange," says Dr. Karsten Wildberger, CEO of MediaMarktSaturn.
Six awards for AI entrepreneurs
The Dishbrain Award provides an opportunity to spotlight outstanding projects and applications of artificial intelligence in the business world and private life.

The Dishbrain Award celebrates the creativity, progress and possibilities offered by AI. The award presents simple but ingenious applications that can already increase productivity and make everyday life easier.
"We also present visionary projects that show the way forward for small and medium-sized enterprises and help them prepare for future developments. At Dishbrain, we understand the importance of this connection - it's already embedded in our name. Dishbrain symbolizes the fusion of old-fashioned communication technology (Dish) with advanced intelligence (Brain) to create a new dimension of thinking and acting," emphasizes Michael Caudera, Managing Director of Dishbrain.
The collaboration between Dishbrain and MediaMarktSaturn is based on the common goal of facilitating access to modern technology and optimally reaching and supporting a broad target group. Dishbrain brings a valuable network of contacts in the AI field and new ideas, while Europe's leading electronics retailer MediaMarktSaturn uses its experience and reach to make the innovative approaches to artificial intelligence accessible to a wider audience. The award aims to gradually establish itself as the leading prize for AI applications and build a community that shapes the future together.
