Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics (AIDA) Grant
Find out about the AIDA Grant, which co-funds AI and data analytics projects for financial institutions and the financial sector.
The adoption of advanced computing and data science in the financial sector will inevitably continue, and it will undoubtedly change the way we work and transform the way financial institutions operate. There are many moving parts, many necessary ingredients, many stakeholders, and we will walk this journey as an ecosystem. It is our collective responsibility to seek out the opportunities in this revolution, and not only ride the wave of disruption, but to facilitate the transition of culture.
