- **Event Description**: A hands-on day for UK industry, business and local authority partners to shape CHARISM's human-centric AI and robotics agenda.About this EventYou helped make CHARISM happen — now help shape what it does.We'd like to invite you to the opening industry workshop of CHARISM, the new five-year UK–Japan Centre for Human-Oriented AI and Robotics in Inclusive and Sustainable Manufacturing, co-funded by UKRI/EPSRC in the UK and JST's ASPIRE programme in Japan.CHARISM brings together leading UK and Japanese universities and research institutes — led by the University of Birmingham and Japan's AIST — to develop AI and robotics that keep people, wellbeing and sustainability at the centre of manufacturing. As the partners who live these challenges day to day, your perspective is central to getting that right.This is a working day, not a run of presentations. After a short overview of the centre's vision, you'll join researchers and fellow partners to:share where you see the real challenges and opportunities for human-centric AI and robotics in industry;help co-design practical use cases across three ways people and robots work together — sharing spaces and tasks, collaborating on a common task, and operating robots remotely;build direct connections with the UK and Japanese research teams and help shape the questions the centre pursues over the next five years.You'll leave having influenced a live research agenda, with new connections across academia and industry, and with concrete next steps for staying involved.Who it's for: our UK partners from industry, business associations and local authorities who supported the CHARISM bid — and colleagues you think should be part of the conversation.
