techUK Data and AI panel: Making the UK a world leader in emerging technology

The Covid-19 crisis demonstrated the importance and power of data and data driven technologies such as AI to make a real difference to the work of public sector organisations and companies around the world. Data and AI have played a key role in supporting decisions throughout the crisis and are now being looked at by organisations of all sizes and sectors as they begin to consider how to rebuild and recover from the pandemic. Given the economic opportunities and potential offered by data and AI encouraging and increasing adoption, deployment and use of these technologies is more important now than ever before. As organisations begin to consider what they need to prioritise in terms of business recovery and digital transformation how do we make the case for adoption of technologies that can help turn data into insights, knowledge and value? Also how do we ensure the continued uptake and use of AI technologies to ensure the UK remains a world leader in AI adoption?
