Meet our partners and collaborators sharing their knowledge, skills and technologies at LifeIn AI

HEADLINE PARTNERS

Devon & Somerset LSIP, delivered by Devon Chamber of Commerce

Partnering with Tomlinson Solutions and Smart Working Revolution as our event headline partners for “LifeIn AI”.

Devon Chamber of Commerce leads on the Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP)—a statutory initiative designed to ensure that skills provision aligns with the needs of local employers, supporting business growth and economic resilience across the region.

Ronnie Carter, Project Manager for LSIP comments: “AI is already reshaping industries and ensuring our regional workforce has the right skills to harness its potential is critical for future growth. A study by Accenture last year found that 97% of businesses recognise the urgent need to adopt AI, yet only 15% feel truly AI-ready. This highlights the pressing need to bridge the AI skills gap.

“By bringing together businesses, educators and industry leaders, the ‘LifeIn AI’ event will provide a vital platform to explore how we equip our workforce with the skills needed for an AI-driven future. From automation to data science and machine learning, AI is set to transform the way we work - and our region must be at the forefront of this revolution.”

Join us at LifeIn AI: 10.30am-11.15am talk / 1pm-2pm workshop

    As a journalist, marketer and content creator in Plymouth, I’m passionate about shining a light on innovation in our city and the wider region. AI is transforming every aspect of our lives, making it essential to bridge the gap between businesses, communities and the public. LifeIn AI is designed to do just that—bringing together cutting-edge demonstrations, talks, Dome shows and workshops that are not only valuable for businesses but also engaging for families and local people during the Easter holidays. We hope this will become an annual event, celebrating the incredible AI advancements happening right here in Plymouth, Devon and Cornwall.
