The Future of GeoScience is Now.

Over 50% of spaces have been taken already.

Secure Your Place today.

This free, virtual and first-of-its-kind networking event, brought to you in association with Digital Leaders, will bring together the geo-community into a common space where all involved can present, share and understand differing perspectives, ideas and goals, helping shape the Future of GeoScience.

Following the success of the FutureGeo Summit in June, which over 6000 people viewed or interacted with, this next event focuses in on the key challenges and themes that have been discussed, debated and presented over the past few months as the #FutureGeo conversation has grown louder.

The #DigiLounge is a virtual platform. You only need a web browser (Firefox, Chrome and Safari) to access and there are no downloads involved.

8 Virtual Floors – 8 Key Themes

  • Diversity, Difference and Equality in GeoScience
  • Inclusivity and Opportunity in GeoScience
  • GeoScience through Geography and STEM – KS3 and KS4
  • The Decline in University Student Enrolment
  • Utilising Emerging Technologies in GeoScience
  • The Energy and Materials Transition
  • Water
  • Communicating GeoScience

On a floor, you will be able to join tables and Theme Champions to discuss, debate and explore both challenges and opportunities, networking with open and like-minded individuals who share in your passions and experiences.
