The 蘑菇传媒 has formed a new partnership with the Home Office Accelerated Capability Environment (ACE), to provide their expertise to address public safety and security challenges.
Established by the UK Home Office, ACE works across government and the wider public sector to solve pressing front-line mission challenges arising from data, digital and technology. It does this by working with industry and academia through its Vivace supplier community.
Being party of Vivace 鈥� and it鈥檚 academia-focused ACE Research Network (ARN) 鈥� will enable 蘑菇传媒 researchers to access ACE鈥檚 unique insight into significant government challenges, and to work on ACE commissions and participate in ACE events.
Sam Brooks, ACE Research Network (ARN) Lead, says:
