The company is already in discussion with top universities in the region for strategic collaboration and premium talent acquisition.

Additionally, Course5 will partner with the regional start-up community to achieve their mission of ‘Narrow AI’, which is the development of specific industry-and-domain-focused use cases in AI. This has proved to be an effective strategy even at their first AI Labs center in Bangalore, where specific AI technologies are used to drive their flagship products—Compete (5P Competitive Intelligence), Adomate (Ad Optimization – creative and media planning),  Discovery (Insights Analyst-on-demand), and Optimizer Suite (AI-driven Research Operations).

With the addition of Course5’s Toronto AI Labs, Course5 aims to create a broad base of deep AI capabilities that will support the creation of robust, innovative products and platforms for the future. The Labs will combine advanced AI Research and Development with strategic industry partnerships to build next-generation solutions enabled by best-in-class innovations of the global AI community.
