Engage with Us

Sensible conversations about modern technology

We welcome the opportunity to engage with commercial and public sector organisations. Leveraging the expertise and experience at INDEX, we work in cooperation with leading teams around the world to offer research-led insights, deliver education, and engage in innovation activities.

We can help you. Email us

We work with business leaders, to:

  • Demystify modern technology, data, and digital transformation – accessibly, and using non-technical language
  • Discuss the practical challenges they may be facing in their industry as it adapts to the Fourth Industrial Revolution
  • Share experience and insight, often building collaborative ongoing research and learning relationships.

These are few of the organizations with whom we have engaged recently:

Collaborate

We offer help with policy documents, seminars and workshops. This is research-led, so we bring deep knowledge to the table.  For example, INDEX’s team members have: 

  • Shared policy advice with NHSX, some of which has been adopted 
  • Run a senior management session on digital with AWS’ UK central government customers 
  • Developed two reports on AI and Robotics for The Emerging Technology series, Lloyds of London 
  • Helped shape the strategy for a major platform technology firm in the local government sector 
  • Helped shape the architecture for a new national counter-terrorist capability 

An exclusive opportunity

Over the next 3–6 months, we are looking to partner with one or two organisations. You get help analysing your data, and we are able to refer to this in our research.
