We have all heard about the latest tech innovations from AR and VR to IOT and sensor technology, but who is leading the development of the commercial use of these technologies in the North East and what is the process to follow and likely barriers and costs associated with development.

Join us at PROTO in Gateshead on the waterfront to hear from two North East success stories.

Nigel Watson, CIO Northumbria Water Group will share their use of innovation festivals and hacks to develop practical innovations using the latest tech; and from Shaun Allan, Chief XR Officer at Hedgehog Labs who will focus on the latest use of AR and VR technologies including in the Utilities sector.

Places are limited, and the salon will be followed by networking drinks.
