A huge thank you to Kate Doodson FBCS, Chief Transformation, Performance and Digital Officer at Brandon Trust, for joining us at DS15 Women in Digital in January! As a long-time friend of Digital Somerset, Kate never fails to deliver thought-provoking insights and this session was no exception. 🌟 We enjoyed listening to Kate talking about the impact of the Brave AI Project, currently being implemented in Somerset, which is designed to analyse patient records and predict the likelihood of hospital admissions within the next 12 months - the outcome of the project could offer huge operational savings, while improving patient experiences. Among other topics, Kate went on to talk about the evolution of AI from its current generative state to agentic and robotic process automation, which is anticipated as early as 2026 or 2027. If you missed Kate’s fantastic discussion, you can now catch up on her talk here: 🎥👇 https://lnkd.in/eDwtVKrJ Do let us know your thoughts on Kate’s discussion in the comments below. #DigitalSomerset #WomenInDigital #DS15 #DigitalTransformation #DigitallyCurious #SomersetBusiness #SomersetChamberOfCommerceMember Somerset Chamber of Commerce Barclays Eagle Labs Firepool Centre for Digital Innovation 50 DEGREES | Digital, Film & Web Yeovil College Bridgwater & Taunton College SRD Technology UK 360 South West ADPR Teapot | B Corp

Support Digital Somerset and showcase your brand 🚀 Digital Somerset is a volunteer-led CIC made up of passionate individuals and businesses who want to ensure that Somerset evolves into a hub for digital innovation & collaboration. Our events bring together industry experts, innovators and businesses, but as a non-funded organisation, we rely on sponsorship and corporate partnership to keep the CIC running. Sponsoring a Digital Somerset event helps cover our essentials such as event catering, the usual business running costs and reinvestment into our workshops, as well as the statutory expenses needed to run a community-driven initiative. Your support not only keeps these events accessible but also positions your brand at the heart of Somerset’s thriving digital scene. We have a range of packages for the business community with options ranging from pizza sponsor or event sponsor, or for those looking for a longer team alignment ask about our corporate partnerships. 📩 Interested in supporting the digital skills agenda in Somerset?
