Promising start: First Alumni Talk in Information Systems
Promising start: First Alumni Talk in Information Systems
On Thursday, 20 November 2025, the new Alumni Talk series of the Master’s in Information Systems was launched. This compact lunchtime format offers students insights into industry practice and the opportunity to network with selected alumni of the University of Liechtenstein.
At the first Alumni Talk in Information Systems, two graduates of the Master’s programme shared their experiences with implementing AI in business processes. Johannes Schleicher, Transport Planner at LIEmobil, provided insights into the potential of AI to reduce workload in analysing passenger flows and processing around 20,000 data sets per day. Florian Schietinger, Trainer and Program Manager at Daimler Truck AG’s Learning Academy, offered a behind-the-scenes look at a global AI training initiative for more than 45,000 employees in six languages.
Practical insights and networking
The event series aims to give students at the University of Liechtenstein early insights into professional practice and access to the university’s strong alumni network. During a lunch break, students took the opportunity to ask individual questions and network with the alumni and the Information Systems team, represented by Academic Director Prof. Dr. Pavel Laskov and Programme Manager and co-initiator of the Alumni Talk series, Dr. Daniel Knapp.
Next Alumni Talk in December
On Thursday, 11 December, alumni Paula Elsensohn, Strategic Program Manager at VP Bank Vaduz, and Leo Richard Irudayam, Senior SAP BTP Solution Advisor at SAP St. Gallen, will return to campus as part of the next Alumni Talk. Registrations are open until 8 December via this link.
