Tim is an AI industry veteran with more than 25-years of developing data-driven applications for banking, healthcare, retail, and manufacturing companies.

Lately, this topic has become the core of the public’s reaction to Contact Tracing as a key component of COVID-19 response. How can businesses use surveillance tools to allow a safer return to work without alienating either their staff or customers?
