    Introduction
    Who is the day for?
    Manufacturing Design Engineers, Operational Directors and Managers, Innovation Managers, Creative Directors, Virtual Reality Specialists, Programme Managers, Studio Managers, Strategists and Technologists. Any decision maker who wants to learn more about how they can use immersive environments and virtual reality to increase their competitive advantage, improve operational efficiencies and factory layouts, improve collaborative working and reduce their programme development costs. The size of your organisation isn’t the key criterion, your need to innovate is.

    What will you learn?
    As optimising innovation & efficiency capabilities become more complex and expensive to embed into organisations, new technologies can be deployed to accelerate and transform how your value chain performs. This creates a quality and intensity of collaborative learning that delivers significant new layers of business improvement and commercial impact.

    The day will run from 10.00am until 4.00pm with a buffet lunch provided. Participants will be put into groups who will then rotate through a set of different experiences.
