SUMMARY:Vision UK
DESCRIPTION:Committed to driving industry progress and helping our users make more informed technology decisions. Vision UK has become the leading UK machine vision exhibition from UKIVA and incorporates the Machine Vision Conference (MVC).\nKeen to deliver greater benefits to visitors and exhibitors\, we have opted to run the Vision UK trade show as part of the Automation UK exhibition for 2025. \nSet to take place at Coventry’s CBS Arena from the 7 to the 8 of May\, the expanded Automation UK exhibition will provide visitors with the opportunity to explore a range of industrial machine vision solutions. Exhibitors will also benefit from increased engagement with potential buyers and suppliers. \nWith a new name and identity\, Automate UK will strive to ensure that Vision UK remains the UK’s leading machine vision event. The passion and commitment have been recognised by various machine vision companies\, who are already registered to exhibit at next year’s event. However\, spaces are still available\, with registration details shared in the Automation UK brochure.

SUMMARY:Global Semiconductor Alliance’s 2024 International Semiconductor Conference
DESCRIPTION:For the first time in more than a decade a major  international semiconductor conference is coming  to London\, and it is all happening on March 13th and 14th\, in partnership with the UK Government’s Department for Science\, Innovation & Technology (DSIT) to jointly explore the impact of semiconductor innovation in anticipation to a NetZero economy. \nThis is a seminal moment for the UK semiconductor strategy. It needs to be a success\, so that the UK Government can support the Global Semiconductor Alliance to relentlessly repeat it. \n\nCome to the conference to hear the opening address from the Minister for Tech and the Digital Economy\, Saqib Bhatti\, who will reveal the way ahead for UK semiconductors. A strategy that has been defined by a dedicated team of more than 20 civil servants working on semiconductor policy intervention daily. This has never happened before in UK semiconductors.\nCome to the conference to see how women are shaping the future of leadership in our industry.\nCome to the conference to immerse yourself in the world of “new new” semiconductor startups. Hear the growth stage investors perspective about UK opportunities\, hear about the intellectual property benefits and challenges for the UK and hear about the fundamental challenges in attracting investment into early-stage semiconductor startups.

SUMMARY:Future Photonics Leaders Group Formation Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Early career photonic professionals and researchers are invited to a virtual sandpit meeting on 9th September to discuss the formation of new UK Early Career/ Future Photonics Leaders group focused on fostering\, supporting and capturing the opinions of those early in their photonics careers that will lead UK industry and research in the future. \nThose starting and developing their photonic careers today will be the industrial and academic leaders of the future. It is hoped this group will run alongside the current PLG to foster interaction\, mutual support\, and insights to ensuring the future photonics ecosystem is one that participants will be proud of\, motivated to lead\, would recommend to others and provides dynamic\, diverse and rewarding career opportunities. \nAs a starting point an initial draft scope\, activity focus and terms of reference for the group has been developed and is open for comment and discussion on 9 September (15:00-16:30 by Teams). Preregistration is requested. The new group will need to be self-organising and volunteers will be sort to take the group forward with support and coaching from the current PLG.
