techUK: new AI adoption case study collection - call for case studies!

We are launching a call for techUK member case studies, to demonstrate how organisations are tackling the barriers to AI adoption to maximise AI's potential. These case studies will be showcased to UK organisations that are also embarking on their AI adoption journeys, providing them with practical examples and insights to guide their Putting AI into Action efforts. 

Our AI Adoption collection of case studies will provide a comprehensive look at how organisations are effectively integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into their operations. These case studies highlight a diverse range of examples where AI is being put into action, either through the internal adoption of AI models to enhance organisational capabilities or by developing innovative AI tools and solutions that can be utilised by others. 

Through these real-world examples, our collection aims to shed light on how AI is transforming various industries, from health and social care and cybersecurity to transportation and central government, among others. By presenting these practical use cases, we hope to illustrate best practices for AI implementation, demonstrating how organisations—whether large organisations, or SMEs, are successfully leveraging AI to drive efficiency, innovation, and competitiveness.  

These case studies are valuable for numerous audiences, including businesses looking to optimise their processes and explore new AI-driven opportunities, public sector organisations seeking to enhance service delivery and operational efficiency, and government bodies and policymakers aiming to understand how best to support UK businesses who are playing their part to drive UK innovation and economic growth.  

Each case study not only provides an in-depth analysis of the specific AI strategies employed but also offers insights into the challenges faced, the solutions implemented, and the measurable impacts achieved. The goal is to empower these varied stakeholders with valuable lessons and actionable insights, helping them navigate their own AI journeys with greater confidence and clarity. 

Ultimately, by sharing these examples, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of AI's potential across sectors in the UK and to encourage more organisations, whether in the private or public sectors, to explore and adopt AI-driven solutions tailored to their unique needs and objectives. 

Please fill out this form with the details of your case study.

Once you you have completed the form please submit it to/contact for further queries, techUK’s Programme Manager for Artificial Intelligence, Usman Ikhlaq: [email protected]
