About the venue

The award-winning Technology and Innovation Centre (TIC) offers dedicated conference facilities for up to 600 delegates, all year round.

Strathclyde’s flagship research facility – addressing challenges across a wide spectrum, including Energy, Health Technologies and 5G communications – TIC is right in the heart of Glasgow, the perfect location in terms of transport, accommodation and the city’s renowned cultural and retail attractions. TIC is far from a traditional academic venue. Its state-of-the art facilities were designed with meeting planners in mind, and include: • Main Auditorium - seating 450, movable walls subdivide this unique space into a tiered auditorium for 300 plus a flat-floored section for 150; or three separate spaces, each accommodating 150. • A further 150-seat auditorium. • 8 flexible conference rooms accommodating up to 80 delegates each, all enjoying natural daylight. • Executive Suite – a self-contained venue tucked away on the top floor, offering a further two flexible meeting rooms. • Spacious, interconnected foyers - with natural daylight and contemporary furnishing, the perfect location for exhibitions, catering and networking. With user-friendly audio-visual solutions; fast, free and reliable delegate Wi-Fi; and experienced, customer-focused in-house event planners, technicians and food & beverage team, TIC is a modern, flexible backdrop for a wide range of business events. The Centre won the Bronze Award for Best Academic Venue at the 2019 M&IT Industry Awards; was named Best Academic Venue at 2019’s CHS Awards; and is proud to hold Green Tourism Gold status.
