Empowering New Hampshire to Lead in Artificial Intelligence

The New Hampshire AI Task Force, an initiative of the New Hampshire Tech Alliance, is dedicated to positioning New Hampshire as a national leader in artificial intelligence (AI).

Support the creation, development, and adoption of AI tools and technologies in key New Hampshire industries such as healthcare, education, manufacturing, public services, and small business.
Develop Talent and Workforce Readiness
Partner with educational institutions and training organizations to build future-ready talent pipelines that align with the demands of an AI-driven economy.

Drive Economic Growth
