We couldn't be more excited and proud to announce our partnership with SHV Energy. Together we've launched the SHV Energy Data & AI School, and Cohort 1 is already underway.
This is not a standalone training initiative. It sits directly inside SHV Energy's Strategy House, anchored in their global AI strategy towards 2028. As Paulo Rodrigues (CDTO) put it at the kick-off:
When we approved the AI School, we were not approving a training programme. We were designing one of the mechanisms that makes SHV Energy's global strategy executable. The School empowers the company's people to excel with AI, and that's what our approach to AI sets out to achieve.
The ambition is significant: up to 6,000 employees across countries including the Netherlands, Italy and Brazil. It is the human factor pillar of SHV Energy's three-pillar AI strategy — the piece that ensures their investments in technology actually translate into how people work every day.
The programme is built around what we know drives adoption:
To the SHV Energy teams joining cohort 1: Welcome! We can't wait to learn alongside you. Huge thanks to Hiroshi Maeda, Paulo Rodrigues, Danielle Rainha, Rishita Jones and Navid Ardakanian for their leadership in this co-creation process, and to the entire Data Booster team for building something we're genuinely proud of. This is our largest partnership to date. And it's just getting started.
