Solent Growth Partnership and AiLab (Artificial Intelligence Laboratory) have launched a new survey to map AI capabilities across the region.
This initiative aims to identify organisations using AI tools and techniques, spotlight areas of expertise, and inform strategic decisions around investment, policy, and skills development.
We’re calling on public and private organisations based in the Solent to take part. Your input will help strengthen the local AI ecosystem, attract investment, and support the development of AI skills aligned with the region's economic needs.
This survey is part of the AI Skills Partnership pilot, run in conjunction with the Business Board Network. The pilot is a scalable, region-led model that supports the UK’s national AI and skills strategies. It brings together employers, training providers, and leaders to deliver place-based AI training and innovation.
Get involved and be part of the movement to make our region an AI superpower.
The AI Capability survey consists of 3 short sections and should take between 3-10 minutes to complete.
