DETAILS
This event will be our first held entirely on a virtual reality platform and will showcase Immersive Technology (XR) and its application within the health system as well as the potential low carbon benefits it can bring. The event has been designed primarily with SMEs in mind and will provide them with a chance to find out more about the XR health landscape, understand how they can access support and funding and network with other innovators and stakeholders from the health system. The event may also be useful for Clinical and Digital Leads in healthcare organisations who want to learn more about XR and its applications in training and patient care.
The meeting will be held on the Spatial VR platform and access details will be provide to registered delegates nearer the time. Although access to the meeting with a VR headset is recommended it is by no means essential and delegates will be able to access the meeting via their laptop or tablet devices.
