KEYNOTE CONFERENCE PROGRAMME A major part of Manufacturing and Engineering Week 2023 is the conference programme that will take place across two Keynote Conferences and six Solutions Theatres. Each theatre offers a comprehensive schedule of free-to-attend presentations delivered by manufacturing and technology experts. Solutions Theatre topics include: Automation & Robotics, Digital Transformation, IIoT & Connectivity, Industrial Data & AI, Innovation and Design Engineering. Emphasising the importance of M&E Week is the Day 1 keynote address in the main theatre will come from the Government on the topic of their plans for supporting UK manufacturing while on Day 2 the shadow government will talk on the same subject. Conference agendas include other such topics as What next for UK manufacturing? Led by former Siemens UK CEO Juergen Maier and The story of a British Engineering Icon that looks at the story behind Triumph Motorcycles.
CELEBRATING INNOVATION Highlighting innovation is one of the key aims of M&E Week. Made Smarter’s Innovation Alley, for example, will showcase all the new and developing technologies that will change the landscape of manufacturing over the next five to ten years. Similarly, the Innovation Village, run by the seven High Value Manufacturing Catapult research and technology centres, is an immersive and interactive demonstration area that will take visitors on a journey from fossil fuels to

renewables, demonstrating the technological advances that will transform industry for a sustainable world. As well as looking to manufacturing’s future, M&E Week will also celebrate its current leaders, a Best of British showcase will celebrate domestic manufacturing, featuring world- beating new designs, innovative modes of manufacture, products that redefine categories and export successes that plant the flag in overseas markets. Continuing the theme of best
in class, moving from its Liverpool home to take place as part of M&E Week, is The Manufacturer Top 100 which celebrates ten years of highlighting the work of inspirational industry leaders.
PEOPLE AND SKILLS Recognising that the future of the industrial sector is as much about people as it is about technology is the Manufacturers of the Future programme developed with partners Engineering UK, Make UK, Engineers Without Borders UK and the IMechE. Due to take place place on the afternoon of Day 2 (8 June) the event enables students and apprentices to engage with the rapidly evolving world of manufacturing.
Several other notable events will take place at
M&E Week including The Manufacturing Digitalisation Summit, an executive level conference for businesses with a turnover in excess of £100m, which involves a variety of keynotes, panel discussions and topic-specific discussion tables, designed to provide the best value and opportunity for learning.

FRINGE ACTIVITIES Manufacturing and Engineering Week strives to offer something different. An example of this is a focus on engineering and music with a number of activities for the music fans in attendance! Visitors will get the chance to win a 3D printed guitar from sponsors Nexa3D as part of the Guitar Legends competition. Entrants will put their names forward in advance (via an online entry form) to be in for a chance to enter the M&E Week soundproof booth and record a classic song intro and a
solo in a musical genre of their choice. Not only will the winner receive a brand-new 3D printed guitar but the winner on day 1 (7 June) will also have the chance to join the band entertaining both visitors and exhibitors alike at the after-party. The major differentiator of M&E Week 2023 is that it brings together all aspects of manufacturing and engineering. Due to this wide focus, it is suitable for a business to bring their whole team from operations, safety and maintenance to design and more. This connectivity encourages cross functional teams to attend together, despite the fact that they are responsible for different parts of the projects they work on. Multiple divisions, be that from a small or large business, can get value from attending because there are elements that are specifically created for them. To register for a free pass please visit:
