This opens opportunities for local and regional collaboration through&nbsp;[https://www.uts.edu.au/research-and-teaching/industry-partnerships/podcasts podcasts] and [https://open.uts.edu.au/index.html open source courses]. Due to the shift in online learning in 2020, more resources and events are now online to accommodate the change. The majority of society events are now held online through zoom to allow students to connect socially. A new way to support and connect students are through the UTS FEIT Discord Server where students discuss their subject difficulties and assist each other in solving issues. There are still many spaces and events that are yet to be released virtually for students to access. ===Physical Spaces=== Physical spaces in UTS function as catalysts for innovation and entrepreneurship and are supported by over 1 billion dollars of recent infrastructure investment. Vision2027 envisions the UTS campus and facilities as spaces for public and community engagement as highlighted in the following four strategic outcomes: *Build Australia’s first [https://www.uts.edu.au/partners-and-community/initiatives/indigenous-residential-college Indigenous Residential College] to support Indigenous student participation and success in higher education.*Expand innovation spaces such as [https://www.uts.edu.au/about/faculty-engineering-and-information-technology/protospace ProtoSpace], [https://www.uts.edu.au/partners-and-community/data-arena/overview Data Arena], [https://www.uts.edu.au/about/faculty-engineering-and-information-technology/tech-lab Tech Lab], [https://www.uts.edu.au/current-students/current-students-information-faculty-engineering-and-it/innovation-hub iHub] to be more accessible to industry partners, civil society and government.*Develop co-working spaces in the tech precinct and UTS facilities in Botany and Western Sydney.*Design local engagements across Sydney that support lifelong learning. ==='''2027 UTS Vision'''===‘We’re a university for all, ensuring everyone who desires and merits a place at UTS is enabled to do so’ UTS strives to enhance the surrounding communities in a socioeconomic context. This is evident in their scholarship programs directed at those who are experiencing economic hardship is evident in their scholarship programs. For example, the ‘[https://www.uts.edu.au/current-students/opportunities/scholarships-prizes-and-awards/scholarships-uts/equal-access-scholarship Equal Access Scholarship]’ aims to assist lower socioeconomic groups to attend UTS. Additionally, they aim to support minority communities financially in their attendance at UTS. There are scholarships available for both indigenous students and women in STEM.  ===Collaborative Approach=== ===='''[https://www.uts.edu.au/news/campus-community/texas-love South by southwest]'''====South by southwest is a huge multimillion dollar event that will greatly stimulate the surrounding economy, particularly in the area of hospitality. UTS is collaborating with this event. Not only has UTS assisted in the running of this economically stimulating event, it has partnered to create opportunities for UTS students to receive career stimulating work experience and internships opportunities for the event. South by Southwest will run a series of workshops, panels and mentor sessions that will provide educational opportunities to a wide variety of people throughout the event.  ===='''[https://www.csiro.au/en/work-with-us/funding-programs/sme/sme-success-stories/university-of-technology-sydney CSIRO]'''====UTS and CSIRO are together dedicated to assisting Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in their research challenges. For example, researchers at UTS alongside CSIRO have worked on projects with both Young Henrys and 4 Pines Brewing Company. ‘Berto (industrial designer and Senior Lecturer in Product Design at UTS) finds collaborating with SMEs highly rewarding and considers such partnerships vital for our economy and society.’ Thus the partnership between UTS and CSIRO can be seen as beneficial to SMEs, stimulating for the economy and empowering to our society.  ====[https://techlab.uts.edu.au/uts-nokia-5g-partnership-2/ Nokia]====UTS has partnered with Nokia to research and develop 5G and 6G networks. The development of this technology will work to significantly stimulate GDP in Australia. They are collaborating in the 5G Futures Lab that is equipped with state of the art technology and will assist in pushing their research forward. Additionally, the partnership between UTS and Nokia has resulted in the creation of the UTS Tech Lab. This is used as an R&D space for both corporations. Nokia has also provided financial support in the form of scholarships such as the UTS Nokia Nuala Ward Prize to students enrolled in UTS. <br />== Landscape Canvas ==
