Industry 5.0 – How does the UK get there first?

Here East, the innovation and technology campus located in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in East London, invites you to the latest instalment in its Future Talks series, exploring how cutting-edge technologies will transform the future of the UK.

Frontier technologies—such as AI, robotics, and quantum computing—are radically changing industries by enabling faster decision-making in manufacturing, optimising healthcare systems, and driving innovation through tools like edge AI and digital twins. These advancements will not only revolutionise key sectors but also redefine business as we know it.

Moreover, the UK Government’s recently published AI Action Plan gives a potential blueprint for the UK to become a global leader in frontier technology with a £14 billion investment commitment focused on computing power, data, and talent. The question is – how do we get there?

Taking place at Here East in Plexal on Tuesday 4th March from 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm, leading figures from industry will present their views on the challenges and opportunities of frontier technologies, and what the UK needs to do to stand out on the global stage.

Join an audience of founders, innovators, academics and policymakers to continue the discussion.

The event will include a drinks reception and canapes.
