What is the AI HUB?
The AI Hub is a technology studio and applied research centre at Durham College. The AI Hub’s mandate is to help Canadian companies harness the full potential of artificial intelligence. As a nexus for academic, industry and government partnerships, the AI Hub is here to help companies navigate the range of issues and opportunities present in today’s rapidly evolving artificial intelligence and big data landscape.
Our Story
The AI Hub was founded in 2017 at a critical moment in AI research and development in Canada. Growing and evolving alongside artificial intelligence, the AI Hub became a Technology Access Centre (NSERC) in 2023, recognizing its vital role in cultivating a competitive climate through technology adoption, innovation and commercialization. Since its inception, the AI Hub has leveraged more than $5 million in investment and supported more than 150 companies.
The AI Hub is made up of a dedicated team of technology leaders, developers, and students purposefully assembled to deliver best-in-class AI services for industry clients. We help companies in traditional sectors adopt and integrate AI solutions to position them to compete in an AI-driven economy, and we help innovative companies commercialize new AI solutions and bring them to market.
