The first-ever Turing Network Development Awards in AI
As many as 24 universities in the United Kingdom won The Alan Turing Institute’s Network Development Awards for excellence in research excellence and a track record of translation in data science, AI, or a related field. “The awards reflect the demand across a range of sectors to work with the Institute. Data science and AI doesn’t stand still, and so we look forward to working together with this network of universities; exploring new ways to grow the UK’s dynamic research and innovation landscape,” said Adrian Smith, Director of The Alan Turing Institute. As the national institute for data science and AI, the Turing Institute already has a well-established network of university partners. However, these awards enable the Institute to extend its reach. The group of successful universities will be awarded up to GBP 25,000, to: Establish or grow an engaged and diverse community working (at all career stages) in data science and AI research and innovation at the university, who are aware of and will engage with potential opportunities and initiatives available across the Turing network.Identify and establish links between Institute priority areas and areas of interest and expertise at the university. Host activities and initiatives that are open to the wider data science and AI research and innovation community and/or local and regional communities, to form new links and collaborations. Map the university’s expertise and strengths in each of the Institute’s priority areas and those considered of national strategic importance (in data science and AI) not yet covered by the Institute.Design plans for how the network will become sustainable for the future.
