Data Innovation Showcase 2024: the ultimate data science event in the North East

‘An inspiring place to be’ 

NICD is based at The Catalyst in Newcastle upon Tyne and is an integral part of the wider Newcastle Helix complex. Newcastle Helix is a hybrid city quarter, purpose built for science and technology innovation and is just a stone’s throw away from the world-famous Newcastle University. This makes The Catalyst the perfect home for NICD and our Data Innovation Showcase. You can find out more about how The Catalyst inspires visitors in this short YouTube video. 

It’s not just our location that makes us so special, though. NICD is also home to a fantastic team of expert data scientists, each with their own particular specialism. Together, we are a leading authority on all things data science: you can ask us anything about AI, machine learning, large language models – the list goes on! 

The power of collaboration

At NICD, we work with businesses of all shapes and sizes, across all industries, with an overarching focus on upskilling and knowledge transfer in data science and AI to achieve individual and company-wide goals. We have worked alongside major organisations such as SAGE and AkzoNobel, as well as with SMEs and startups such as PolyBox Solutions and Connected Energy on a variety of ambitious projects with real-world results, elevating their workforce and developing self-sufficiency in their data skills. 

Representatives from several of these businesses including Gateshead Council, the NHS and Seascape Systems are speaking at this year’s Showcase – expect an extensive, two-day schedule full of specialised talks by industry-leaders and innovation experts.
