Building Applied AI Solutions for Enterprises
April 11, 2025
Wesley Clover International has invested in test, integration and demonstration centers starting with a center in the UK. Named Corpus AI, the center is focused on developing practical AI solutions for a range of enterprises.
Supported by Mitel alongside a major international carrier and one of the UK’s leading research universities with the largest supercomputer devoted exclusively to AI research, Corpus AI will offer a comprehensive program. This program will combine applied research, technical testing, and solution commercialization within a single, coordinated environment.
At its core, Corpus AI is designed to support the real-world application of AI in communication services, IoT, business solutions, and edge computing. The center includes three integrated components: a Customer Experience Center, a Test and Interoperability Lab, and a Research and Development Center. Each plays a distinct role in transforming innovative ideas into tested, deployable enterprise solutions.
The program engages with new sponsors, academic institutions, and enterprise partners. Discussions are underway with project stakeholders to identify specific use cases where AI delivers measurable impact. Once opportunities are defined, cross-disciplinary teams will be formed within the Alacrity Foundation, an entrepreneurship and technology development initiative based in Newport, Wales, to develop and commercialize the resulting applications.
Several organizations already contribute to early-stage projects through their technical expertise and vertical-market insight. Participating Wesley Clover portfolio companies include Edge Signal, Enjovia, Hyas, Hut Six, Martello, Streetwave, Surple, Talkative, thinkRF and Twentify.
Corpus AI will also launch a Digital Community Portal, offering access to AI testing tools, an AI Academy, developer resources, and collaborative research spaces. This platform will serve as a hub for SMEs, researchers, and technology partners across various industries.
By aligning innovative ideas to solve business problems, Corpus AI will offer a flexible, high-performance environment where applied AI solutions can be created, tested, and brought to market.
