The Centre for Cognitive and Advanced Technologies
Creating value by revolutionising decision-making
Fujitsu's Centre for Cognitive and Advanced Technologies is revolutionising how people and organisations make decisions while tackling the shared British and Japanese national challenge of unlocking the economic potential of their world class research capabilities.
The Centre brings together innovation in areas including quantum computing, artificial intelligence and digital twin technology, as part of Fujitsu’s commitment to developing a high-skills UK economy. Providing a direct link to our work in Japan, the Centre will provide a focal point for collaboration between industry, Government and academia, as well as enhancing the UK’s ability to draw on Japan’s leadership in areas such as supercomputing and Fujitsu’s work on Fugaku, one of the world’s most powerful super computers.
Driving insight and foresight
This short video outlines how the Centre combines technology and expertise to drive insight and foresight from data, helping you overcome both immediate and strategic challenges.
It’s an approach that revolutionises decision-making across multiple industry sectors, creating new value for your organisation.
Our programmes
The Centre provides UK industry, Government and academia with rapid access to cutting-edge Japanese technology and domestic industry expertise. To address a broad spectrum of customer challenges, our team pulls in a wide range of emerging technologies and collaboration techniques, including:
Digital Twins
Driven by advances in 5G, IOT and cloud technologies, digital twins blur the physical and virtual worlds, enabling real time modelling of everything from specific operational processes through to complex traffic and weather conditions.
Neurosymbolic AI
The traditional ‘black box’ nature of AI decision-making has slowed the adoption of AI in critical environments such as financial services and healthcare. Our team has access to pioneering Explainable AI technology, where the reasons behind AI decisions are made fully transparent and auditable.
Hivemind
By harnessing both crowd and artificial intelligence, the Centre improves decision-making across both business and government. Hivemind provides a structured platform to leverage crowd knowledge and machine learning, ensuring leaders have a full picture of future opportunities and threats, improving their decision-making and reducing risk.
Fusion Cell
By bringing together all available sources of insight and foresight, and presenting them in a digestible, intuitive way, we can improve the speed and accuracy of decision-making.
Ecosystems
Ecosystem and funding are a “front door” for potential partners, stakeholders, intermediaries, and funders into The Centre for Cognitive and Advanced Technologies. Our team nurture an ecosystem of mutually supportive stakeholders, finding opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and revenue generation.
Advanced Compute
Fujitsu has a proven track record of pioneering leading-edge technologies, from the quantum-inspired Digital Annealer, through to Fugaku, one of the world’s most powerful supercomputers. These exciting technologies are available through a computing-as-a-service model. Accessible to customers via the cloud to solve specific challenges.
