29 November, Research Hub
We were delighted to welcome many of our partners for a first look at our new home, the first research hub to open in Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus.
During the day delegates heard from Co-Directors Professor Dimitra Simeonidou and Professor Susan Halford and guest Professor Tim Whitley, BT Managing Director of Research and Network Strategy about the history of our industrial site, progress with facilities and live projects. Academic flash (just two minutes) presentations covered a diverse range of topics from the quantum internet to explainable AI to technology in the crime nexus. In our Neutral Lab during networking more work was showcased including our commissioned artwork, Injurious Effect, virtual reality facilities, ‘5G in a box’ – the Nomadic Node, Advancing Cyber Security, MyWorld and the sustainable campus testbed.
We were delighted to share our new home, expertise and to help make introductions for partners Airbus, BT, Digital Catapult, LV=GI, Thales, TM Forum, Ultraleap, Watershed and the West of England Combined Authority.
