In this project we will prototype AI and digital technologies (data processing and visualisation) to map dynamic landscapes of expertise for the corporate sector. Katapult provides collaboration tools like a match-making map, to provide access to networks and help unlock organisational capability to promote innovation.

However, high market volatility results in rapid changes of knowledge and expertise and in this project, we aim to augment these collaboration tools by prototyping AI and digital technologies (data processing and visualisation) to map dynamic landscapes of expertise as they develop over time. Such a data visualisation will reflect area’s of expertise and uses available public digital data to keep representations up-to-date. As a result, this prototype will bring together an overview of the demand for and supply of expertise and will serve as an input for an interactive match-making tool for Katapult to help organisations and professionals to build networks to effectively respond to new market opportunities.
