How a 150-year-old candle company is reinventing itself with AI
Where do you start, and how do you keep it from becoming one big project that never lands?




Gunter van der Sluis
Global Head of Business Excellence at Bolsius
That was the challenge Bolsius, candle maker since 1870, faced. Gunter van der Sluis, Global Head of Business Excellence, and his colleagues went looking for the work AI could take on. They came up with 35 possible use cases and chose three to start with.
In the recording Gunter walks us through how they went about it:
- what decided which use cases went first
- the business case behind them, and how he got colleagues on board
- a look at the first working AI apps

Where would AI pay back first in your company?
Investment memos, support answers, tenders, order intake: every customer began with one process, and none of them knew which one on day one. We help you find yours.
Shall we find yours together?
