Driving Business Value from Data and AI

The business world is awash with buzzwords, many of which relate to AI and the use of data. It can seem overwhelming at times as we navigate through the noise to find out what is important and what is just rebranding of last year’s ideas.

This course, delivered by The Data Lab, Scotland’s Innovation Centre for Data and AI, will take learners beyond the hype by demonstrating how they can drive value for their business through better use of data and AI. The course will also help learners to answer the question “Where do I start…..without spending too much money?”
