East Midlands Chamber Chief Executive Scott Knowles said: "AI is here, it's here to stay and for the East Midlands to thrive, businesses of all sizes need to be ready, whether they're already some way into a plan and want to develop it or haven't yet dipped their toe into the water and want to learn more.

"No one could conceivably do business these days without a smartphone, and that's what we'll say about AI not far from now. NetMonkeys have geared-up businesses with the software they need to achieve their goals and grow. Whether it's keeping systems running smoothly or developing bespoke technology for businesses to get ahead, NetMonkeys is as passionate as it is clued-up in the needs of business and adapting to them.

"Pairing the resources of the Chamber and the vast insight we have into the challenges our members face, with the extensive digital skills of NetMonkeys means we can collectively deliver truly outstanding support to businesses across the East Midlands and propel their AI journey. I very much look forward to working with NetMonkeys at this key time of technological evolution, providing first class AI support to our members."

Nick Gall, NetMonkeys Managing Director

NetMonkeys Managing Director Nick Gall said: "Embracing AI gives businesses not only a protective armour against the changing technological landscape to safeguard success but upskills them with the tools to get ahead of competition. To date, our story has been about being steps ahead of impending change and that's why we love doing what we do.

"We've developed software that helped hundreds of East Midlands businesses to achieve more through the use of technology. Our teams specialise in process improvement, automation and gaining an 'edge' for our clients. Our use of AI has resulted in tens of thousands of pounds not only saved but gained!

"This special AI partnership with East Midlands Chamber will be of huge benefit. The Chamber is the voice of the business community across the region and is known for the superb support it gives businesses to help them grow. NetMonkeys knows AI. We have a wealth of experience, with over 15 years tailoring software products, and supporting businesses across the UK with the technological infrastructure they need to thrive and stay competitive. Putting these two huge resources together is very exciting as we all embark on the road to AI.

"This collaboration with East Midlands Chamber will unlock the full potential of AI implementation, whether it's a training session for staff at a business or supporting a business with its entire AI strategy, I very much look forward to working together."
