Quantum: Game-changer or niche? (Online)
Quantum physics describes the behaviour of small particles such as atoms or photons. Recently technology has advanced to the point where this weird behaviour can be harnessed to do a wide range of things such as build powerful quantum computers, ultra-sensitive sensors, incredibly precise clocks and unhackable communications. This talk will provide an up-to-date view of quantum, with an honest appraisal of the outlook for this fascinating area with an emphasis on communications.

Echion XNO Battery Technology - Safer, Faster, Longer
Lithium-ion batteries are widely accepted as the energy-storage norm and are expected to become the primary energy source as the world seeks to achieve decarbonisation targets in many areas, especially transport. Current Li-ion technology is not a one size fits all solution and many applications, such as rail, large haul mining trucks, construction vehicles and maritime have specific requirements in relation to charging times, life cycle, safety and increasingly, sustainability.
