Cofounder, Quantexa

Imam Hoque, cofounder of Quantexa, has discussed the role of data and decision intelligence across sectors including healthcare, finance, and government. At a 2025 panel on digital technology in health, he described organizations as "data-rich but information/intelligence poor" and emphasized the importance of joining data together to provide full context before applying AI models. He also cited an example of using AI to inspect roll-on roll-off ferries, noting that while the system was statistically better than inspectors' guesswork, practical adoption required engaging innovators. In earlier appearances, Hoque explained decision intelligence as an approach where computers use AI to make or augment decisions after data is unified, contrasting it with traditional business intelligence. He discussed Quantexa's work with UK government investments and its status as a "poster child" for UK tech, and commented on data privacy, suggesting that countries overly protective of data may fall behind those more willing to use it, citing Norway's pandemic response as an example. He also spoke about using hybrid models combining rules and analytics to detect fraud, noting that rules can amplify expert knowledge but may become less effective if adversaries learn them.
