This event forms part of a three-part CreaTech Network Series running between February and June 2026, designed to strengthen connections across the CreaTech ecosystem in Greater Manchester and the Northwest, and to support collaboration between the University and the wider creative and cultural industries community.

The first event of the 2026 CreaTech Network Series will focus on how AI is currently being used across the entertainment sector, particularly in film, television and games. It will look at practical uses of AI in areas such as animation, screen production and creative workflows, alongside some of the challenges this raises for creative practice.

The session will include short talks from academic and industry speakers, followed by a panel discussion and open Q&A. Speakers will be confirmed shortly. The event is intended to bring together researchers, creatives and industry partners to share experience and encourage discussion.

Location: To be confirmed Date: Thursday 26 February 2026

Complimentary lunch refreshments will be provided.
