Government investing £32 million in AI projects to boost productivity and improve public services

The UK government has announced £32 million in funding for 98 innovative AI projects, aimed at improving efficiency in various sectors. These include delivery of prescriptions, railway maintenance and training construction workforces. The funding will support over 200 businesses and research organisations across the UK.

The projects span across the UK from Southampton to Birmingham and Northern Ireland. Examples of some of the projects being funded include:

  • Construction Safety Training: V-Lab Ltd has received £165,006 to develop AI-powered virtual simulations for training workers in the construction sector. These simulations train workers on risk assessments and safety protocols, ensuring a skilled and safety-conscious workforce.

  • Efficient Prescription Deliveries: Anteam, based in Nottingham, is working with retailers and the NHS to optimise prescription deliveries using AI algorithms. This initiative seeks to match delivery needs with existing routes, reducing carbon emissions and improving patient experience.

  • Autonomous Railway Maintenance: Hack Partners is spearheading a project to create an autonomous system for monitoring and maintaining rail infrastructure. This development hopes to improve the efficiency and safety of the UK’s railway network.

  • Electric Vehicle Motor Design: Cambridge-based Monumo is part of a team awarded £750,152 to enhance motor designs for electric vehicles using a 3D Generative-AI Tool, aiming to improve sustainability across various transportation sectors.


The government is clearly committed to finding ways to harness the power of AI to improve productivity. AI can bring benefits to businesses of all sizes, have you considered how AI could help you?
