Introducing the Frontier Tech Helpdesk
A blog by the Frontier Tech Hub.
After a successful trial, we are happy to introduce an exciting addition to the Discovery Fund: the Frontier Tech Helpdesk. The Helpdesk is now accessible to all FCDO staff, and offers expert guidance and assistance in exploring questions and ideas related to how frontier technologies can be used for positive impact.
Some examples of the questions we can help you explore include:
How can AI help to make more effective decisions on WASH infrastructure in Nepal?
How have nature-based solutions been used to support local livelihoods in Sahel?
Who should we speak to about using virtual reality in UK diplomatic visits?
At the Frontier Tech Helpdesk, we provide tailored coaching to support idea development and to connect you with relevant initiatives, point you in the right direction for resources on frontier tech, and conduct research on your behalf. This includes the opportunity to access small grant funding, as well as to apply to join the flagship Frontier Tech Hub portfolio.
Don’t hesitate to reach out to us here and let us support you to take your idea further!
We can’t wait to hear from you.
