CReDo Demo and Use Case Workshop: Technical Demonstration and Ideation Session for Academics and SME Innovators

In partnership with the Science and Technologies Facilities Council (STFC), Connected Places Catapult is hosting a unique event designed to bring together the brightest minds from academia and the most forward-thinking representatives from innovative SMEs. At this session, attendees will:

  • Learn about the key features of the Climate Resilience Demonstrator (CReDo) connected digital twin for climate resilience;
  • Explore the CReDo source code for component ideation;
  • Conceptualise potential use cases and opportunities to leverage the CReDo approach and underpinning technology in new real-world settings.
  • Network with like-minded academics, innovators and funding institutions.

At the event, participants with a technical background will have an opportunity to deep-dive into the CReDo source code and run a demo Python Jupyter notebook.

The demonstration will provide participants with technical understanding of key functionalities of CReDo, including:

  • Importation and structure of datasets to develop a synthetic asset graph;
  • Running of asset failure and failure cascading models;
  • Examination and visualisation of model outputs to understand how assets will behave in extreme events; and
  • Decision support to better understanding asset criticality and facilitate better investment decisions.

Why should you attend this event?

  • Collaborate and Innovate: Work alongside top academics and innovative thinkers to tackle real-world challenges using cutting-edge methodologies and technologies.
  • Showcase Your Skills: Demonstrate your expertise in areas including digital twins, resilience planning, climate data, and digital solutions.
  • Explore New Applications: Discover and develop innovative applications for CReDo that can drive significant impact in various sectors.
  • Research Poster Presentation: Academics can apply for the opportunity to present your latest research findings to a captive audience of industry professionals and peers.
  • Networking Opportunities: Connect with organisations actively working in or funding strategic R&D. Forge partnerships that could propel your projects to new heights.

 Who Should Attend?

  • Academics conducting research in digital solutions, climate data, resilience planning, and related fields.
  • Representatives from innovative SMEs working on technical development of digital solutions to support resilience and sustainability in infrastructure.
  • Organisations and agencies focused on strategic R&D and innovation funding around climate resilience, digital risks, digital twins, cyber-physical infrastructure. 

Event Highlights:

  • CReDo Technical Demonstration: Dive deep into CReDo code and brainstorm new possibilities for its technical components.
  • Research Poster Sessions: Share your research and gain insights from peers and industry experts.
  • Ideation for Real-World Applications: Explore how our product can be applied to solve pressing challenges in various industries.

This is your chance to be part of a stimulating day of innovation, collaboration, and exploration.
