This webinar took place on 22 July. You can access the event recording here.


This was the latest event in techUK's 'Web3 & Immersive technologies' campaign. Running from July to December 2024, this explores how the UK can lead on the development, application and commercialisation of these technologies. You can find out more about the campaign here.


This session convenes world-leading experts across the fields of AI and immersive technologies to discuss how the likes of Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), holograms and haptics are being shaped by increasingly sophisticated forms of Artificial Intelligence.

We will explore the following topics:

  • How is AI driving the creation of immersive technologies, including the design of immersive software and hardware?
  • What new experiences, products or services are emerging as a result?
  • How is AI driving the adoption of immersive technologies?
  • What technical infrastructure will these trends depend upon?
  • Is the UK well positioned to lead in the intersection between these areas?
  • What more can UK industry and Government do to maximise opportunities in this area?

Sprint Campaigns

techUK's sprint campaigns explore how emerging and transformative technologies are developed, applied and commercialised across the UK's innovation ecosystem.

Activity includes workshops, roundtables, panel discussions, networking sessions, Summits, and flagship reports (setting out recommendations for Government and industry).

Each campaign runs for 4-6 months and features regular collaborations with programmes across techUK. 

techUK's latest sprint campaign is on Robotics & Automation technologies. Find out how to get involved by clicking here.

New Space

Running from September to December 2023, this sprint campaign explored how the UK can lead on the development, application and commercialisation of space technologies, bring more non-space companies into the sector, and ultimately realise the benefits of the New Space Economy.

These technologies include AI, quantum, lasers, robotics & automation, advanced propulsion and materials, and semiconductors.

Activity has taken the form of roundtables, panel discussions, networking sessions, Summits, thought leadership pieces, policy recommendations, and a report. The report, containing member case studies and policy recommendations, was launched in March 2024 at Satellite Applications Catapult's Harwell campus.
