CoSTAR Live Lab launches with a celebration of live performance and a call to explore

State-of-the-art live performance facility CoSTAR Live Lab opens in West Yorkshire
CoSTAR Live Lab launched its cutting-edge research and development facility last week with an action packed event headlined by musician Jamie Cullum.
Led by the University of York, the CoSTAR Live Lab brings together Production Park, Screen Yorkshire, Wakefield Council, Vodafone and York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority. Read more about the launch.
Also announced at the launch was the CoSTAR Live Lab: New Frontiers for Live Performance call inviting creative technologists and companies to apply to explore their new facilities in Production Park while accessing virtual production research expertise from teams at University of York and funding to bring new ideas to life.
The call is being led by the CoSTAR Network Prototypes and Pilots Programme (PPP) and is open to UK companies who want to turn inspiration into competitive IP that will shape the future of live performance. Watch this video to find out more about the PPP and how it works.
