GRID is home to many digital and creative companies from small-medium web and marketing start-ups to larger digital tech companies, and the University of Glasgow actively participates in research that pushes the boundaries of digital technology, such as virtual reality, gaming, and digital cultural heritage projects. 

Museums in the Metaverse is an exciting spin-out from the University of Glasgow which is pioneering a virtual reality museum platform that will make it possible to open up collections around the world.

Additionally, the University's engagement with industry partners ensures that research and teaching remain aligned with the needs of the creative and digital sectors. By nurturing a symbiotic relationship between academia and the creative and digital sectors, the University of Glasgow plays a pivotal role in driving innovation and economic development in the region.
