AI Strategy Unveiled at Bosch Tech Day 2025
At Bosch Tech Day 2025, the company outlined how AI will accelerate innovation across manufacturing, automotive technology, and consumer products. Stefan Hartung, chairman of the Bosch board, highlighted how AI breakthroughs enable new technology chapters and faster product development.
Strong Patent Activity and AI Applications
Bosch has filed more than 1,500 AI-related patent applications in the last five years, ranking it among Europe's top AI innovators. Their AI applications include automated driving systems that help vehicles visualize surroundings, plan routes, and predict other road users’ behavior.
- Software, sensor technology, high-performance computing, and networking components are core to this growth.
- These product sales are expected to double by the mid-2030s, reaching over 10 billion euros.
Agentic AI in Manufacturing
Bosch is deploying agentic AI systems that make autonomous decisions in manufacturing operations. These multi-agent systems monitor equipment, predict maintenance, and optimize workforce schedules—reducing downtime and boosting productivity.
Tanja Rueckert, Bosch board member, compared the impact of agentic AI to how smartphones transformed the internet. The company plans to release its agentic AI platform to other businesses in fall 2025, enabling easy creation of multi-agent systems with minimal programming.
Consumer Products and Workforce Development
Beyond industry, Bosch integrates AI into consumer products such as:
- Revol cribs that monitor infants’ vital signs
- E-bike range control systems
- Series 8 ovens that recognize about 80 dishes and adjust cooking settings automatically
Since 2019, Bosch’s internal AI Academy has trained over 65,000 employees, with nearly 5,000 AI specialists currently developing intelligent solutions. According to Bosch’s Tech Compass survey, 80% of global respondents plan to pursue AI training, and 72% of Germans see AI as the dominant technology of the next decade.
