IET London Events

The biggest risk to some of Europe's critical infrastructure this summer wasn't a cyberattack, a power outage or a supply chain disruption. It was a lack of water. From healthcare and manufacturing to food production and energy, water underpins almost every system we rely on. Drawing on lessons from one of the world's most water-intensive industries, this lecture explores a practical Water Kaizen approach to understanding where water is used, what it truly costs, and how organisations can reduce, reuse and recover it more effectively. Learn how a Water Kaizen approach helped a major pharmaceutical campus in a water-stressed region cut water consumption by more than 40%. By understanding the cost and users of water across a city, campus, building or utility using the simple principles of Measure, Reduce , Segregate, Reuse, Recover, this methodology can be applied across any sector.

This talk is a description of how our understanding of the factors affecting Earth's temperature developed through the 19th Century, following the insights of Fourier, Tyndall, Langley and Arrhenius.

The talk will explore what is needed to develop and deliver autonomous systems at the pace and scale demanded by modern Defence

Join the IET London Young Professionals Network for an engaging Hot Topic event exploring the future of autonomous vehicles and delivery robots.As autonomous technology continues to develop, self-driving vehicles, pavement delivery robots and intelligent transport systems are moving from concept to reality. These innovations have the potential to improve mobility, reduce delivery costs, support accessibility and transform how people and goods move through our cities. However, they also raise important questions around public safety, regulation, ethics, cyber security, liability, accessibility and trust. How safe is safe enough? Who is responsible when something goes wrong? How do we balance innovation with the needs of pedestrians, road users and local communities? This event will bring together speakers from industry, research and engineering to discuss the opportunities and challenges of autonomous vehicles and delivery robots.

Thales IAS UK's F-ADAPT Hub (Future Air Defence Availability Project) is co-located alongside 7th Air Defence Group Royal Artillery at Baker Barracks. It has been providing a one-stop shop for management (spares and repairs) of air defence equipment including LML/SL (Lightweight Multiple Launcher/Shoulder Launcher) and for Stormer vehicles since 2008. Alongside maintenance and repairs it also provides training and support for short notice operational deployment request, as well as facilitating demos and trials.

Join our panel of industry experts for an overview of the significant themes from the annual IBC (International Broadcasting Convention) held in Amsterdam. Find out how the future of entertainment can be delivered.

This seminar brings together two complementary perspectives on the evolution of human collaboration and its implications for future communication systems.

A presentation explaining how Southwark Council made the bold step to become a charge point operator and give local authorities options regarding commercialisation opportunities. It also talks about the issues that they came up against, and emerging technologies Local Authorities should be aware about. With London Authorities having to tighten their belts and find new ways to bring new money in, EV charging infrastructure might be the opportunity for Local Authorities to bring in new revenue streams.

Bringing higher sound quality to music lovers. A fireside chat with Keith Howard and Bob Stuart, exploring the interplay between audio engineering, human auditory science and the myriad real-world challenges they bring.
