To align with the devised mission, the divisional structure of the center encompasses four departments of scientific research, market research, scientific publication, and scientific events. The scientific research department spotlights and documents the groundwork of the valuable applied maneuvers of the company in dealing with real-world business challenges. The market research department puts the knowledge-based ideas into practice by directing the development of high-tech services such as a data annotation platform and an AI-enabled robotic system in the banking sector. The division of the scientific publication also hosts the editorial office of the Journal of Applied Intelligent Systems & Information Sciences (JAISIS) through embracing practical studies on different streams of ICT. Furthermore, the center looks for designing scientific events to learn the target audiences how to cope with novel technological concepts/tools using innovative educational methods like gamified ones. Currently, 15 full-time specialists and a broad network of experts in ICT projects with profound academic and seasoned business backgrounds are interactively pursuing the Center's mission.
