Waterloo.AI launched the Nexus of Data & AI Seed Fund to inspire new interdisciplinary research across campus. With $20,000 awarded to each team, the program supports early-stage ideas that bridge data, AI, and the university’s Global Futures priorities. Several months in, all six projects are showing strong momentum — from new tools and publications to major external funding.
