    Brief

    The North East region has the lowest rate of AI adoption across the UK. This funding opportunity supports an intervention to coordinate fragmented AI business support services and build a cohesive AI ecosystem in the North East. The programme aims to unlock the transformative economic benefits of AI adoption by creating better integration between existing support services, reducing duplication, and helping businesses access guidance on implementing AI solutions. Successful delivery will involve developing an ecosystem profile to understand current AI capabilities and gaps, then coordinating stakeholders to provide more effective, targeted business support that accelerates AI adoption and drives substantive economic growth across the region.
