Faculty

Faculty is an AI consultancy founded in 2014 that helps organisations access and apply artificial intelligence to improve their performance. The firm works across artificial intelligence, machine learning and data science, and has partnered with hundreds of organisations in countries around the world. Its client base spans government, healthcare (including the NHS), defence (the Ministry of Defence), retail, finance, energy and life sciences.

The company's work is concentrated on AI alone, rather than spread across a range of technology services. Faculty describes its purpose as making AI useful to the world, and states that the impact of its work is a core motivator. It takes the practical deployment of AI seriously and does not chase technology hype cycles.

Alongside its consultancy work, Faculty runs the Fellowship programme, which helps academics move into commercial data science careers. The programme has more than 425 alumni to date. Technical work centres on artificial intelligence, machine learning and data science, with a global footprint across the economy.
