A public event, entitled, "Shaping a sustainable future: transformative technology at UCL" was initiated and organised by the Grand Challenge of Transformative Technology (GCTT) Working Group on 24 April 2023 at the Object-Based Learning Laboratory and North Cloisters at UCL Wilkins Building. The event aimed to demonstrate a range of transformative technologies across UCL; discuss what value the GCTT adds to cross-disciplinary collaboration at UCL; and explore how GCTT can contribute to the evolved Grand Challenges Programme.

Attendees discussed the different transformative technologies across the university, GCTT's value towards cross-disciplinary collaboration; and GCTT's future within the Grand Challenges Programme. If you missed it, here's a video recapping what took place. 

Following the event, the working group have created a report evaluating its outcomes and potential impact; setting out some recommendations for the future development of GCTT in the context of the evolved UCL Grand Challenges.
