The South Coast AI Community
Hampshire AI regularly brings together 80+ attendees from across the South Coast technology community, with expert speakers, real-world case studies, and open discussions designed to keep you ahead in a rapidly evolving field. It's a space for developers, data professionals, founders and business leaders to learn from practitioners, share experiences, and build practical AI skills.
Recent sessions have explored topics including AI adoption with Microsoft, AI in mobility, AI vs automation, and accountable AI. Each event focuses on practical implementation, helping attendees understand how organisations are adopting AI, overcoming challenges, and creating measurable business impact.
Events are run by Spectrum IT and take place bimonthly at the Axis Centre, Southampton Science Park. Attendance is free, with networking opportunities for peers, speakers, and technology leaders from across the region.

What are our events like?
'What struck me most was the honesty in the room - local leaders, SMEs and start-ups sharing what's working and what isn't. That's exactly the kind of conversation that moves things forward.'
Marc Esmiley, Microsoft
