The Northeast AI Buddy Framework: Democratising AI Fluency for Regional SME Productivity
The Northeast AI Buddy Framework is a high-impact, £141,395 feasibility pilot funded by Innovate UKunder the national TechLocal program. Designed to bridge the digital "readiness gap," the framework bypasses traditional classroom training by deploying a novel "Digital Reverse Mentoring" (DRM) model.
The pilot pairs tech-savvy local candidates ("AI Buddies") with internal business staff ("AI Champions") to safely integrate secure, custom AI workflows that buy back up to 20% of an employee’s working week


How it Works
Our six-month feasibility pilot addresses a critical gap: generic classroom training models fail SMEs. Businesses need hands-on workflow integration, not theory.
