SUMMARY:5G in Health and Social Care - Webinar Series
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, UK Healthcare spend accounted for 12.8% of GDP\, £269 billion. The NHS alone employs 1.6 million people\, treating millions of patients and supporting further millions of citizens in need of help and guidance. Significant injections of additional Government funding were required to help adapt service delivery models and meet increased demand for services related to the pandemic. \nAmid Covid-19\, the health and social care sectors have introduced new and innovative ways to operate safely and efficiently—yet new challenges have emerged related to treatment delays\, on-going infection risk and increased demand on services such as mental health and wellbeing. \n5G has the potential to support innovation in these areas and across the sectors as a whole: facilitating more efficient and effective ways of working. Globally\, developed economies share these challenges while emerging economies continuously face extremely challenging conditions and ongoing shortages of skilled workforce\, further enhanced by pandemic fallout. Health and Care service delivery has seen an acceleration towards community services (treatment and management away from hospitals)  meaning increased reliance on data and communication systems both in wireless tech and  wired connectivity formats. \n5G has great potential to replace and enhance such connectivity and much more besides. It may prove to be a key platform to underpin the innovation in  adjacent  technologies and in ‘best practice’\, which will become necessary to build sustainable health\, care (and increasingly wellbeing and preventative) service designs for the future. \nThis series of events will be of interest to anyone involved in contemporary health and care service design or delivery.

SUMMARY:Immerse UK x Imagination Virtual Production Series
DESCRIPTION:Between November 2021 and February 2022\, Immerse UK and Imagination will be joined by industry experts in a series of panel discussions and thought-leadership pieces exploring the impact of virtual production and real time content production\, each from a different perspective. \nJoin the organisers as they explore virtual production through three different lenses\, including; \nThe Future of Content\nThe benefits and impact of using a real time workflow to create content. \nThe Future of Live Experiences\nThe emerging advantages\, and challenges\, of using real time content for live experiences. \nDigital Transformation in real time\nExploring what is required to embrace realtime technologies and workflows into your organisation. \nAbout Virtual Production\nVirtual Production is more accurately described as real time content production; The process by which digital objects and environments are generated in real time using video games engines such as Unreal and Unity. The same technology that immerses you in living\, breathing\, photorealistic gaming worlds\, is now being used by filmmakers\, storytellers\, marketers and even product designers\, opening up limitless creative possibilities. \nAbout the Series\nThis series aims to demystify the technology and dig into the practical applications\, and structural\, business and cultural impact of this incredible new world\, which is and will continue to transform industries in much the same way that cloud computing and the Internet before it. \nHear from industry experts and thought leaders at the forefront of Virtual Production\, as they guide you through the latest techniques and possibilities in this exciting new space.
