About this Event
About the Session
As part of National Productivity Week, we’re bringing together researchers, practitioners, policymakers and people interested in place-based development to explore how high-quality regional data can drive better strategy, investment, and collaboration across the North West.
We’re delighted to offer two limited-capacity tours of the University of Manchester’s Data Visualisation Observatory - the first of its kind in the UK. This cutting-edge facility provides an immersive, interactive environment designed to transform the way we work with complex data.
The Data Visualisation visit will show:
- Interactive 3D visualisation of large and complex datasets
- A cylindrical matrix of 72 full HD screens delivering laser-sharp definition
- A space purpose-built for high-intensity data exploration
This is an opportunity to see how advanced visualisation can shape new thinking, unlock insights, and support productivity innovation across the UK.
