30 years, one focus: Lena
Verena Kuhr, BSI Software
Verena Kuhr, BSI Software

Moderator Verena Kuhr opens the Customer Summit 2026! For 30 years, everything at BSI has revolved around one person: Lena, your customer. You’ll discover how, with every innovation, we create sustainable added value for her—and therefore also for you—and why genuine customer proximity matters more than ever today. An inspiring kickoff for two days packed with ideas, practical knowledge, and encounters.

Closer than ever: Customer relationship in the AI era
Olav Lenz & Chris Rusche, BSI Software
Chris Rusche and Olav Lenz, BSI Software

Olav and Chris demonstrate what happens when your client’s AI assistant becomes the counterpart: first anonymous, then personal, finally autonomous. With Agent Relationship Management you nurture this relationship as carefully as you do with Lena herself. The live demo shows how human and AI play together perfectly for this: Bob, the AI agent, automates in the background, Andrea, the administrator, directs the co‑creation, and Vicky, the customer‑service representative, steps into the spotlight in co‑working exactly when proximity makes the difference. This creates both efficiency and growth, and you are closer to Lena than ever before.

Co-Creation in a Customer Context
BSI Software
Christoph Bräunlich & Lena Bartel

Human and AI turn Lena's question into a new use case. Faster to market, with less effort.  

"I'm working part‑time, how do I adjust my retirement planning?" The AI agent still has no answer to this question from customer Lena. Christoph and Lena build it live on stage: they discuss the solution, the companion listens and creates in the Use Case Builder the new AI agent along with reporting that shows the added value, largely on its own. You experience how co‑creation shortens time‑to‑market, reduces effort, and makes the benefit measurable from the start. In addition, there are honest answers to the critical questions: What does it cost and how do we handle AI errors?

3:15 PM
Room 3
Agentic Contact Center
BSI Software | Sikom
Marcel Maron | Udo Schönemann

The Voice Agent takes care of Lena, around the clock and without waiting times. Your team has time for what really matters: relationships.

Lena calls and receives immediate help: the Voice Agent authenticates her, records her request and resolves it right away. Only when a human is needed does it connect her to exactly Vicky, who has the right skills. Marcel and Udo demonstrate how Voice Agents and telephony work natively in the BSI Customer Suite: with skill‑based routing, real‑time prompts, and automatic conversation summarization. You experience how Voice Agents solve issues independently and hand them over seamlessly to your team, how your contact center shortens waiting times, keeps an eye on the load of each queue, and frees your team to focus on what matters: nurturing relationships, with AI by your side.

3:15 PM
Room 6
Co-Working with the Companion Chat
BSI Software
Nicolas Härtwig | Daniel Widmer

AI handles the routine, Vicky makes the difference. React faster, stay personal.  

Lena describes her request in the chat, follows up with the documents via email, and everything proceeds automatically. Nicolas and Daniel demonstrate how the input processing runs in the dark and how Vicky, in co‑working with the Companion Chat, takes care of the rest: with request summarization, document preview, and texts that the Companion drafts for her. You experience how your team becomes faster while still staying personal, even with millions of customers. But what does personal mean when the counterpart is no longer a person at all? With Agent Relationship Management you make the relationship between Lena and her AI assistant visible and use it for offers that arrive at exactly the right moment.

7× more adjustments, over 30% of the inventory: Concordia Sales Automation
Concordia | msg
Andreas Hintenlang & Gevork Badalian | Andreas Sicklinger

Concordia, together with msg, demonstrates how sales automation quickly creates measurable added value. Based on the BSI Customer Suite, a digital broker campaign was implemented that simplifies existing processes and enables contract adjustments efficiently. Brokers access their portfolios directly with their existing login credentials and manage new rates, deductibles, and inclusions digitally – including automated document generation. Learn how Concordia and msg achieve a pragmatic entry into modern intermediary processes, delivering fast ROI, improved data quality, and measurable sales success.

SBB CX at Scale: From Proof of Concept to the Platform of the Future
SBB | BearingPoint
Ralf Stettler | Dominik Laudenbach

15 million unique contacts, over 85 million customer engagements, and two billion customer interactions per year: Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) operate customer experience on a scale where every platform decision must be spot‑on. Therefore, SBB, BSI, and BearingPoint first validated the functional and technical suitability of the platform in a joint proof of concept. This created the foundation for replacing the existing marketing platform by the end of 2028. The presentation shows how scalability and implementation were considered from the outset. It also reveals what makes the collaboration between business units, IT, software vendors, and implementation partners successful, providing a blueprint for anyone planning a large‑scale platform migration.

4:45 PM
Room 5
Agent Governance and Ethics: How Swisscom and BSI Use AI Responsibly
Swisscom | BSI Software
Michèle Westhues | Christoph Bräunlich
Christoph Bräunlich & Michèle Westhues

AI agents relieve teams, advise customers, and make decisions. At the same time, they raise questions: Who bears responsibility? How fair and transparent does an agent act? Michèle Westhues (Swisscom) and Christoph Bräunlich (BSI Software) present two approaches: Swisscom’s risk‑based approach and BSI Software’s opportunity‑based one. This makes agent governance and ethics tangible in practice.

From risk signal to sales opportunity

Low NPS, high churn score: A risk emerges in the data. But what's behind it, and what can be done about it? We demonstrate live how a sales manager, supported by AI, moves from the first data point to the underlying cause, and how the training agent prepares consultants specifically for the decisive conversation.

From the touchpoint to the customer experience
Raiffeisen Switzerland

How can the transition from isolated channels to an orchestrated customer journey be achieved? Raiffeisen Switzerland demonstrates how the foundations for cross‑channel management of customer interactions are being established. The focus is not only on technology and data, but also on organizational questions such as collaboration across departmental boundaries and embedding new ways of working. Participants receive a hands‑on insight into an ongoing transformation process, early findings, and approaches for tackling the technical, organizational, and content challenges of channel orchestration.

Co-Creation in Marketing: 50% less effort in customer selection
HUK Coburg | BSI Software
Erik Eichhorn | Lena Bartel

Customer selection was a labor‑intensive task yesterday – today it’s a dialogue. At HUK‑COBURG, people and AI already work hand in hand in marketing, creating selections that are generated faster, more precisely, and more easily. This is made possible by a principle that combines control and innovation: Human‑in‑the‑Lead. Learn how it works in concrete terms, what learnings HUK‑COBURG has gathered along the way, and where the journey is heading next.

Existing customers finalize online: From the offer through underwriting to the contract
SWICA | BSI Software
Leyla Akbeyik | Lucien Hansen

A new customer is quoted quickly. For an existing‑customer it looks different: additional rules and validations make seamless processes particularly demanding. That’s why many end‑to‑end quotation systems are primarily focused on new business. SWICA and BSI show that it can be done differently: together we have developed a solution that maps the entire journey for existing customers, from the quote through the application and underwriting to the contract. Since summer 2026 it has been live and is delighting both sales and underwriting equally. In the presentation we will give insight into the solution and share our practical experience.

11:00 AM

Stefani Bieri, Die Schweizerische Post & Christoph Bräunlich, BSI Software

When regulation becomes the customer experience – Art. 56a KVG
Synpulse
Matthias Mettler & Lea Kasporick
Matthias Mettler & Lea Kasporick

Since July 1, 2026, health insurers are allowed to specifically inform their insured members about more cost‑effective services, appropriate insurance forms, and prevention—a paradigm shift from payer to active health companion. Learn, using an implementation blueprint, what Article 56a of the KVG means operationally and how BSI channel control and contact regulations pragmatically solve it. In the panel we will discuss how this becomes a customer experience that strengthens trust.

Banking Live: From Service Request to Product Closure with Customer Agents
BSI Software
Philipp Heuberger

A client contacts us with a service request in e‑banking. Part of it is handled by the Customer Agent fully automatically, while another part is deliberately only partially automated because a human makes the difference there. At the same time, the Sales Agent identifies from the context which offer is currently relevant for the client and mentions it at the right moment. We show live how service and sales intertwine. Fewer personal contacts do not mean less sales.

12:30 PM
Room 3
Insurance Live: How Customer Agents turn a claim into a wow moment
BSI Software
Nils Schiffer

Lena is up to her neck in water. She files her claim and now needs one thing above all: an insurer that responds quickly. Customer agents accompany her from the claim filing through the settlement to an offer that arrives at the right moment and therefore convinces. We will show live how intelligent customer service at insurers will look in the future and how the path to it already begins today.

12:30 PM
Room 7
Health Live: The Syrius Connector and a Look Forward
BSI Software
Nicolas Born

Experience the latest innovations around health integration: We will show you the new Syrius EIP Connector, which will allow data to flow efficiently via Kafka and BSI EIP from Syrius to BSI in the future and replace existing ETL loads. In addition, we will provide an outlook on the further development of the DKS interface, which will enable existing customer data to be updated in BSI. The session is complemented by the new geographic target group selection, which enables precise customer targeting based on freely definable regions on the map.

Retail Live: Customer relationship as an advantage in Agentic Commerce
BSI Software
Kai Jesse

What happens if, in the future, shopping agents search, compare, and purchase on behalf of customers? The stronger agents shape purchase decisions, the more important the customer relationship becomes. CRM, flawless service, and knowledge of individual customer needs turn into a decisive advantage. Only a well‑developed customer history enables targeting customers with personalized offers and benefits and staying relevant. Through concrete use cases we show how retailers, using the elements of the BSI Customer Suite—from intelligent input management to personalized customer retention and the BSI Customer Agent—can already today expand customer relationships, provide perfect service, and strengthen loyalty. Those who know their customers better today will have more to offer tomorrow in Agentic Commerce.
