I can confirm that UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) hold information relevant to your request. Please see the information below.

AI Solutions to improve productivity in key sectors:

Please note that successful projects are required to complete various project set up steps, including providing Innovate UK with documentation, collaboration agreements and exploitation plans, as well as passing financial viability and eligibility checks in order to receive grant funding. Until these steps have been completed accurate total funding amounts cannot be confirmed.

Once these checks have been completed and the projects have moved past the setup phase and are live,

their information, including total funding amount, will be published in the Innovate UK Transparency Data .
