Gareth Mitchell-Jones’s words
“Today’s businesses are increasingly realising that long-term competitiveness involves harnessing the power of data and putting AI to work today, not later down the line. From predicting maintenance requirements in manufacturing to ensuring the readiness of stock in retailers’ warehouses, data-driven intelligence is fast becoming a baseline for growth,” commented Gareth Mitchell-Jones, head of data and AI at Nexer.
“In response, Nexer is seeing a real appetite from businesses to move beyond pilot projects, take the leap, and embed data and AI at the core of business operations. Nexer’s global scale, longstanding relationship with Microsoft, and culture of providing genuine care for clients create the ideal platform to meet that demand.”
“I’m looking forward to working with the Nexer team to help organisations embrace data and AI to drive efficiency, growth, and long-term innovation,” concluded Gareth.
