The Scottish Government-funded National AI Adoption Programme supported small and medium-sized organisations (SMEs) that are interested in adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI).
At present, this programme has closed with participation now at capacity.
The programme aimed to provide support for businesses at different stages of AI adoption through a range of tailored interventions. Activities within the programme included:
- Access to AI related courses to build awareness and leadership capacity through AI adoption
- Grant support for AI projects
- Networking opportunities through Rural AI roadshows across Scotland connecting rural businesses with the benefits of AI
- Specialist consultancy advice and support helping you identify and implement AI project opportunities
This programme was a partnership between Scottish Enterprise, Highlands and Islands Enterprise, South of Scotland Enterprise, and The Data Lab.

Additionally, there are limited tickets available for The Rural AI Roadshow in Gretna on 29 January 2026.
