This idea started when our team realized there were so many ways for AI and Decision Intelligence to make a difference – but there simply weren’t enough hours in the day! Each day we used our skills to rapidly build the most impactful solutions for this amazing cause to help FareShare UK get more food to vulnerable people. To learn more about our ongoing work with FareShare, take a look at this great blog written by our data scientist Oskar Nummedal!  ?
