<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">The UK government expects that Artificial Intelligence (AI) will add £630bn to UK industry, but this added value relies on the availability of large volumes of high
quality data that must be pooled together by different organisations across multiple sectors. There is an urgent need for data sharing ecosystems that promote governance, equitability, trust, ethics and privacy. The University of Southampton will host a workshop
on 24 June 2019 to identify challenges and brainstorm project ideas for the development of secure and trustable data sharing infrastructures.
