Advances in micro and nanotechnology has significantly influenced the growth of the next generation sensors which are small in size, consume less power, have better specificity and low weight. The availability of novel tools and techniques and the ability to develop new materials with unique properties have facilitated the development of novel sensors.
The event will showcase some of the innovative sensing technologies developed by UK companies and the latest research and development work from UK Universities leading to new applications in Security, Health and the Environment. In addition to showcasing these novel innovations enabled by micro and nanotechnology, it will highlight key trends, future opportunities and provide insights on how its successful deployment can add value to your business.
- Hear from industrial leaders on future challenges and advise for sustainable growth
