Durham College is proposing to advance the capacity of its Hub for Applied Research in Artificial Intelligence for Business Solutions (the AI Hub). Artificial intelligence, in its many applications, is transforming how management decisions are made, products are developed, services are delivered, and customer engagement occurs. Training of artificial intelligence systems is replacing programming and intelligence-based products and services are rapidly becoming the expected norm for consumers and business users alike. While small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) recognize the potential of artificial intelligence to improve their businesses, and the competitive requirement for adoption, many have neither the resources nor expertise to achieve their desired goals. Durham College's AI Hub will bridge this gap and strengthen local and regional economic performance by collaborating with SMEs from across Durham Region and the Greater Toronto Area to plan, develop, and implement state-of-the-art artificial intelligence systems and practices into business solutions. The AI Hub will assist SMEs to create products, solutions, and processes that have commercial value and enable industry partners to scale, compete, grow revenue, and expand their workforce through artificial intelligence-enabled systems and management practices. Durham College has a solid track record of contributing to the local and regional economy through successful applied research projects, and launched the AI Hub in 2017 with a provincial funding investment. With the support of this IE Grant, Durham College will be able to enhance the capacity of its AI Hub by engaging more faculty, students, and industry partners in collaborative projects to improve business innovation, develop talent, and contribute to local technological advancement. 3 Form 103 (2011 W), page 3 of 7 Second Language
