Advanced R&D for Competitive Advantage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The ENGINE Summit is a new one-day forum designed for R&D organisations of all sizes who want to find out more about partnering with the most advanced research capabilities available to UK industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The summit is organised around key Industrial Strategy themes: AI, Quantum, Space, Defence, Life Sciences, Clean Energy and Advanced Materials<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ENGINE offers direct access to the expertise and equipment
that drive genuine innovation.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

ENGINE will take place in the brand-new CO:LABS building<\/a> on Harwell Campus, and include multiple concurrent stages with focused facility presentations, industry panels, 1-1 partnering sessions, and keynote addresses from leaders shaping the future of UK science and innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attendees will gain new insights into accelerating product development, validating new materials, and unlocking breakthroughs that would be impossible within their own laboratories.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Harwell Campus is a research and innovation super campus home to cutting-edge scientific instruments, institutes, businesses, and expert teams. Attendees will hear first-hand from facilities such as Diamond Light Source<\/a>, ISIS Neutron and Muon Source<\/a>, the Central Laser Facility<\/a>, the National Quantum Computing Centre<\/a>, the Rosalind Franklin Institute<\/a>, RAL Space<\/a>, The Faraday Institution<\/a>, the MRC Mary Lyon Centre<\/a>, and the Satellite Applications Catapult<\/a> alongside some of the UK’s most innovative organisations including Rolls Royce, Airbus, Astra Zeneca, Isomorphic Labs, Moderna and Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event will culminate in an evening reception and the official opening of the new CO:LABs building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ENGINE is free to attend for employees in commercial R&D roles, Investors, UKRI, Academic and Public Sector staff. <\/strong>Register your interest by completing the form below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
