This event is part of techUK's ongoing Web3 & Immersive technologies campaign. Please visit the link or contact [email protected] for more information.
Spatial LDN is a meet-up for developers, builders and all people interested in the future of spatial computing in its broadest sense.
For the next meetup, we'll be exploring what's happened in the Apple ecosystem since the release of the Vision Pro.
How have developers found building VisionOS apps? What interesting use cases have we seen so far? What upcoming funding opportunities are set to drive content development?
We'll hear from both technical experts and founders and get the viewpoints of those closely watching the sector. We also hope to have a number of hands-on demos and would encourage anyone with the device to bring it along and show off what they're building.

techUK – Unleashing UK Tech and Innovation
The UK is home to emerging technologies that have the power to revolutionise entire industries. From quantum to semiconductors; from gaming to the New Space Economy, they all have the unique opportunity to help prepare for what comes next.
techUK members lead the development of these technologies. Together we are working with Government and other stakeholders to address tech innovation priorities and build an innovation ecosystem that will benefit people, society, economy and the planet - and unleash the UK as a global leader in tech and innovation.

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.
This campaign explored how the UK can lead on the development, application and commercialisation of space technologies 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.
