Early career researchers from the MedTech SuperConnector's fifth cohort are already moving on to the next stage. The AI SuperConnector brings together complementary AI innovation expertise at Imperial, York, Leeds and Liverpool universities. Imperial is leading a new accelerator project that will help early career researchers in artificial intelligence (AI) turn their work into startup companies. Starting in January 2024, the AI SuperConnector will provide a broad training in innovation and entrepreneurship, while addressing the unique challenges inherent in this fast-moving area of science. The partners in the initiative - Imperial College London, the University of York , the University of Leeds and the University of Liverpool - have complementary strengths in a wide range of AI sectors, from defence and security to health, and from sustainability and climate change to robotics and autonomous systems. The AI SuperConnector will transform today's researchers at the forefront of AI discovery into tomorrow's startup and scale-up leaders.
