In week 20, five students from the International School in Billund had the opportunity to get close to the business world when they participated in a business internship with Steffen Rehn, who runs the company BEST 4 PROJECT ApS, is a startup mentor and active member of Billund Erhverv.
The internship had a special focus on entrepreneurship, digitalization and artificial intelligence (AI). With over 20 years of experience in digital transformation, Steffen Rehn wants to equip the next generation for a rapidly evolving job market:
“The digital world is constantly changing, and technologies like AI are becoming part of the future of business. Therefore, it is crucial that students, teachers, and professionals learn to understand and use AI in an active and responsible way,” says Steffen Rehn.
As an experienced mentor for entrepreneurs, Steffen sees great potential among young people, who often possess creative ideas but lack the necessary tools to realize them. In the internship, he therefore gave the students a specific task: Identify a problem from everyday life and find a solution with the help of AI.
The students developed these two ideas:
- An AI-based video assistant to analyze skateboard tricks and provide suggestions for improvement
- An intelligent recommendation assistant for music, movies and video games, based on the user's interests and preferences
Steffen Rehn was impressed by the students' ability to think creatively and solution-oriented:
"The students came up with many innovative ideas, and it has been inspiring to follow their process. I hope the experience has motivated them to further develop their ideas and perhaps even with the ambition of becoming entrepreneurs," he says.
Steffen Rehn is currently undergoing board education with a focus on startups and scaleups at DTU, and it is a natural step in his continued commitment to the entrepreneurial environment:
“I want to share my experiences and support young people with dreams, ideas and ambitions to become entrepreneurs, just as I have done,” he tells.
After eight years in Denmark – and after experience from, among others, Mascot and Vestas – Steffen founded the company BEST 2024 PROJECT ApS in 4. The company functions as an expert network with a focus on digital consulting, AI strategies and the implementation of new technologies.
Steffen Rehn is affiliated with the advisor network in Billund Business and actively contributes to the development of the local business community.
