Join us at King’s College London to celebrate success stories from the Centre for Telecommunication Research (CTR). This is an important time for the Centre, marking various achievements in 5G, immersive technologies, healthcare, and emergency services. Telecommunications at King’s is a key focus area for the Department of Engineering which is launched this summer.

To showcase these developments, we are hosting an open day on Tuesday 4 June. The day will start with a number of talks from distinguished industry and academic speakers in the morning, and then continue with demonstrations of the Centre’s research through showcases, posters, and presentations, as well as networking opportunities.

More information on the event will be available through the CTR's website.
