Celebrating AI Excellence

Launched earlier this year by The Cloud Awards, the A.I. Awards celebrate groundbreaking advancements in cloud AI technologies and machine learning. The program features a diverse range of categories, recognizing everything from industry-specific applications like retail and transport to broader use cases such as Natural Language Processing (NLP) and cybersecurity. The aim? To spotlight the incredible work being done in AI, regardless of organization size or geographic location.

The competition attracted a global mix of participants, with entries pouring in from North America, Europe, the Middle East, and APAC. Being named a finalist is not just an honor but a testament to the impact Granica is making in the world of AI.

James Williams, CEO of The Cloud Awards, expressed his enthusiasm:

"We’re excited to reveal the finalists of the inaugural A.I. Awards. The program spotlights the incredible innovations taking place in the world of cloud AI all over the globe, and Granica fully deserves its place amongst this year’s outstanding finalists. Across the whole program these finalists demonstrate that ingenious AI-driven solutions can emerge from anywhere, from organizations of any size, driving positive change in almost any industry you can think of."

We couldn’t agree more - it’s inspiring to see how organizations big and small are leveraging AI to solve real-world problems and push industries forward.
