Imagination Unleashed 2026 - Wednesday 11th February

Imagination Unleashed is our fourth annual event exploring the creative, economic and social potential of CreaTech, which the government has identified as a key strand of its industrial strategy.

Createch combines creative innovation and cutting-edge technology to generate novel products, services and experiences. Createch businesses have the same growth potential as other technology firms and are expected to generate £18 billion in gross value added (GVA) and 160,000 jobs over the next decade. They are found in every creative sub-sector, with an estimated 13,800 creative businesses leveraging technologies including robotics, engineering biology, and XR.

Join creative and technical innovators at Hall for Cornwall on Wednesday 11th February 2026 to discover, experience and play with the latest R&D projects from Cornwall and hear a keynote from Embody XR, a dance company that is addressing the social challenge of anxiety in young people through a VR movement game. The day will wrap up with a panel looking at business models and audience engagement of the future.

If you would like to attend the industry day, please book a free ticket.

This project is part-funded by Cornwall Council from the Culture and Creative Industries Innovation Fund.
