Data is today’s most valuable asset for businesses. In order to gain value out of the data, we need to turn the data into actionable insights, drive meaningful and cost-saving knowledge from it, and develop and deploy profitable data-driven intelligent tools. This can be achieved through advanced data analytics, artificial intelligence and machine learning as well as image, video, speech and natural language processing.

Due to technological advances, data is becoming more available and goes beyond volume, variety, and velocity alone. In addition, industry is now becoming more data-driven and automated. Therefore, advanced data analytics methods and data-driven business modelling are now more important than ever to address the industry’s complex business challenges.

The UK government has started investing more in the collaboration between enterprise organisations and universities in order to improve the business’ (data-driven) value and gain a better place in the world of data and AI economy.
