Contribute to Shaping the Digital Worlds Theme!
"The funding landscape is moving under our feet. UKRI and the research councils are shifting decisively towards research done with industry. This includes partnership expectations written into calls, co-created programmes, impact measured in adoption and so on.
It is really important to me that we understand can the theme help you be prepared and build a wider collective UoM collaborative space to be prepared and perhaps discover new ways of working in the process? Our theme has enormous potential in many areas from digital twins, sensing and connected environments, immersive and virtual worlds. Realising that potential often it starts with a conversation with the right partner at the right moment or having assistance in maintaining conversations and partnerships already in place."
, Theme Lead, is inviting The University of 野狼社区 colleagues to complete a short consultation that will help shape how the Digital Worlds theme works with industry and business partners over the coming year.
In return of colleagues completing this short consultation, the intention is to build a recurring offer:
- An annual Digital Worlds Industry Showcase
- Two themed roundtables a year (digital twins; sensing and connected environments; immersive and virtual environments; the physical鈥搗irtual interface)
- A live partnership map and case-study repository
- An annual report back to everyone who contribute
Please complete the consultation via the link below:
The survey should take approximately 10鈥�15 minutes to complete.
Alternatively, if you wouldd prefer an informal conversation, David Topping would be pleased to hear from you at david.topping@manchester.ac.uk.
