Digital & AI Skills Network Launch

Event details

Join the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) Hartree Centre and Coventry University to launch a new Digital & AI Skills Network for businesses in the West Midlands

We’re joining forces for the first time in a joint effort to deliver a national Digital & AI Skills Network for the UK. This new partnership aims to establish the level of current understanding and adoption of advanced digital technologies in order to identify and address regional and national upskilling needs. Activity will begin with a focus on the West Midlands and expand into further regions of the UK as new partners are established.

At this event you will discover new digital and AI training and skills opportunities, find out how the network could benefit your business, get involved in the discussion and network with likeminded organisations. We’ll be sharing our vision, upcoming events and opportunities and exploring challenges and opportunities in digital skills through a panel session with the experts.
