This Sandpit event is designed to help delegates form collaborations and seek guidance from Special Interest Group (SIG) leads in preparation for the first round of the DTNet+ funding call for pilot projects and feasibility studies. The aim of the pilot & feasibility projects is to enable cross-disciplinary, speculative, adventurous early-stage research and idea testing. Bids to build demonstrative prototypes, or carry out thought leadership, are also welcomed. We are aiming at funding that can help facilitate proposals, innovation or other relevant opportunities. Below is a list of our Special Interest Groups.
1. Uncertainty and Trust
2. Scaling of DTs
3. Design & Implementation of DTs (incorporating real-time SIG)
4. Societal Impacts
5. Health
6. Languages, Logic & Ontologies for DT design, interoperability and analysis (SIG LLODIA)
7. Human Interaction and Representation
8. Resilience and Security
Early career researchers (ECR) are particularly encouraged to apply for these projects.

DTNet+ Ideation Meeting at Ulster University (Belfast) 27th-28th June 2024
Join us for an exciting exploration of the future with Digital Twins Network+!
We're excited to announce our upcoming ideation meeting at Ulster University on the 27th and 28th of June, where innovators, early career researchers from academia and industry and leading experts will converge to envision the next frontier of digital twinning technology across 10 special interest groups and eight themes – see attached Executive Summary. Dive deep into discussions, share insights, and ignite collaboration as we shape the landscape of tomorrow.
The ideation meeting will be followed by a sandpit meeting at York University in September, where ideas for pilot project funding will be developed into bids for funding. Attendance at both meetings is preferable, but not essential, and while funds are limited, we can provide accommodation, travel and caring costs, for a small number of early career researchers who have no access to any other sources of funding. This is your opportunity to contribute, connect, and catalyse transformative change in the realm of digital twins.
Apply for a place by clicking here and be part of the exciting development of digital twinning in the UK. Together, let's unlock the potential of tomorrow's technology landscape.
