AI for Services

Services – including legal, accounting and insurance – account for almost 80% of the UK economy. Financial and professional services alone are worth £190 billion and employ 2.2 million, so it is vital that we ensure these are primed for the future.

The AI for Services network brings together Data and Artificial Intelligence businesses and academics with professionals working in law, accountancy, insurance and finance.
