How to Build an Autonomous System: Software & Systems Architectures of EdgeAI Robotics in 2026

In 2026, autonomous systems are no longer a futuristic concept, but a practical reality. Autonomous systems are often 'software defined' allowing system capability to evolve.

Approach to Fusion Safety

Fusion is inherently safer than fission due to the absence of nuclear chain reactions. However, operating fusion power plants will not be risk free. There will still be numerous hazards that will need careful management in order to safely build, operate and ultimately decommission a fusion power plant. Ensuring a robust safety demonstration that covers all radiological and non-radiological hazards is therefore vitally important for the future permissioning and consenting of fusion power plants.

Northern Ireland Engineering Excellence Lecture & Networking Evening

This year, we are refreshing our annual event format, replacing the traditional sit-down dinner with an evening lecture and buffet reception. The programme will retain two key highlights, our Chair's Address and presentation of the Engineering Excellence Award, while offering even greater opportunities for networking in a more relaxed setting. The evening's keynote speaker will be Garret Kavanagh of Openreach, this year's NI Engineering Excellence Award recipient, recognised for his outstanding contribution to the rollout of full fibre broadband across Northern Ireland. Drawing on his experience leading major telecommunications infrastructure projects, including the achievement of Northern Ireland's full fibre coverage milestone, Garret will share insights into delivering complex engineering programmes and connecting rural and hard-to-reach communities through next-generation digital infrastructure.
