What people were saying

I’d like to thank all of the speakers and facilitators at yesterday’s FutureofEngineering summit, for an incredibly informative and valuable afternoon yesterday, spent listening to some truthful and hard hitting messages around the key priorities for Engineers in the current working environment, and indeed the current world environment.

Paraphrasing Tom Greatrex CE of Nuclear Industry Association, when asked about the impact of 2020 and Covid on the roadmap to achieving Net 0 Carbon Emissions; ‘There is now a greater public and general acceptance.. that there are existential threats that are only going to be addressed by a sustained International effort’

An afternoon of food for thought and action!

How innovation plays a critical role in enabling a sustainable future for businesses, whether it is using data, digitalisation, AI. It is also about collaboration, culture & commitment.

What are the skills priorities required to close the engineering gap, how we retain the talent across all communities and backgrounds, reflecting the diversity in our societies.
