Centre for Digital Built Britain completed its five-year mission and closed its doors at the end of September 2022

This website remains as a legacy of the achievements of our five-year foundational journey towards a digital built Britain
 

Learn more about the outputs of the Centre’s 2018 mini-projects and funded Research Networks to discover how you can get involved to shape CDBB’s Research Framework and future funding calls.

At this event we will be showcasing some of the work completed by the mini-project teams this year, as well as finding out more about the Research Networks funded during the recent Research Network Call. This will be a great chance to meet the people St Catherines Collegeinvolved and find out how to get involved in these networks as they grow.

The event is a Pecha Kucha style event, where presentations will be short and concise, and so this will be a great way to get an overarching understanding of the research and networks funded by the CDBB.

This is a free event and a networking lunch will be provided. Places will be limited.
