The CoSTAR network, which will provide the UK’s screen and performance sector with the state-of-the-art facilities and expertise they need to conduct world-class R&D, launched at the BEYOND Conference on 22 November. CoSTAR is formed of five Labs, based across the UK and brings together a diverse range of partners across academia and the creative industries.
Supported by UK Research and Innovation through the Arts and Humanities Research Council, this transformative £75.6m programme will drive innovation in emerging technologies across screen and performance, utilising technologies such as artificial intelligence and virtual production.
Hosted by AHRC, the launch event is the first chance to find out more about the network and meet the Labs. The session features keynotes from industry experts, plus a panel session and networking.
