EIRA and the University of East Anglia (UEA) invite you to attend the latest event in the AI series with the opportunity to hear from Andy Stanford-Clark – CTO at IBM UK, ‘Master Inventor’, and UEA alumnus.
The event, compered by Tim Robinson, COO at TechEast, will explore the opportunities presented by not only AI, but also the Internet of Things and technology more generally, and our panel, representing our region’s key sectors, will discuss the practical applications at the front end of business.
The panel includes:
Energy – Rob Bush, Operations Manager at EEEGR (East of England Energy Group)
Finance – Owen Morris, MD at Aviva Quantum (Aviva’s Global Data Science Practice)
Healthcare – Ben Meen, Project Manager at Norse Care
Retail – Rohit Chaturvedi, Team Lead at Tech Mahindra (working with East of England Co-op)
Water – Dr Vittoria Danino, Head of the Anglian Centre for Water Studies, Anglian Water
Also joining the panel is Prof Emma Griffin, from UEA’s School of History, providing perspective from her latest project ‘Living with Machines’, set to be one of the biggest humanities and science research initiatives ever in the UK. ‘Living with Machines’ takes a radical approach to collaboration, bringing together data scientists and software engineers from The Alan Turing Institute and curators from the British Library, as well as computational linguists, digital humanities scholars and historians to provide context to debates around the so-called ‘fourth industrial revolution’.
