We are proud to share that the DataKirk has been recognised as the Tech for Good Winner at the 2025 Social Enterprise Awards Scotland, organised by Social Enterprise Scotland.

The results have been encouraging. We have seen learners move into new careers, continue their education, mentor others and contribute new ideas within their communities.
This award is shared with all of you.

If your organisation is interested in partnering with us to improve access to data and AI literacy in 2026, we would be glad to speak with you.
