Autonomous Sailing Boats
An online event, Anahita Laverack will talk about how these vehicles can endure multi-month missions, and how their compact size makes deployment straightforward: a ten-strong constellation of C-Stars can be launched from a small fishing vessel. These robots allow users to harness the power of mass-deployed ocean sensor networks to unlock breakthrough insights in climate and weather research, industry operations, and marine domain awareness.

Optimizing Interface Management on Railway Projects
Rail projects involve diverse disciplines, each with interdependent interfaces. Poor Interface Management (IM) can lead to delays, cost overruns, safety risks, and inefficiencies, often caused by fragmented communication, design-execution misalignment, and reliance on outdated methods. This presentation will explore how proactive IM strategies and emerging digital solutions can optimize both functional and non-functional interfaces, improving coordination and reducing project risks.
