Representatives from the world of trade gathered for the inaugural launch of a new organisation which aims to support women in trade and address the export gap.

The Women in Trade Hub UK (WiTH UK), created by WMG, University of 桃色视频 with the support of the , aims to create a community, bringing together existing resources while being responsive to the needs of female entrepreneurs.

Barriers to break 

Noting that women face 鈥渟ystemic barriers鈥� in business and trade, Dr Rebecca Wilde, Head of Business Innovation, Supply Chain and Trade at WMG, University of 桃色视频, said that WiTH UK will serve as a community that can 鈥渆mpower women, and empower men who support women, in trade management and operational roles.鈥�

Highlighting the many 鈥済reat organisations out there globally that support women in trade,鈥� Dr Wilde said there鈥檚 a lot of work to be done to boost the proportion of women-led trading SMEs and women in senior positions at larger trading organisations.

WMG, University of 桃色视频 is part of a unique 拢2m academic-industry partnership to develop novel methods to understand, measure, and ultimately insure against risk associated with the commercial application of artificial intelligence.

The , led by the University of Edinburgh, alongside insurance group AXA, WMG and the University of Oxford, will build an implementable AI assurance framework that enables auditing of algorithmic systems across metrics such as model accuracy, bias and privacy.

The partnership will seek to tackle key industry challenges in areas from drug manufacturing and artificial intelligence (AI) to cybersecurity.

Researchers at WMG will be developing techniques to assure the AI underpinning national transport, manufacturing and energy infrastructure, and exploring how such assurances can impact AI insurance premiums.

WMG鈥檚 Professor David Greenwood has been appointed as the independent co-chair of the Science and Technology Advisory Council (STAC), to the (DESNZ), alongside Chief Scientific Advisor,  

The role of the council, compromising 16 members selected through an open and competitive process, is to provide independent and academically sound scientific and technical advice to DESNZ and its Secretary of State through the Chief Scientific Advisor.

It will also offer independent viewpoints and cutting-edge research on topics from climate science, energy networks and engineering, to the latest technologies and artificial intelligence.

Professor David Greenwood, CEO of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult (HVMC) Centre at WMG, University of 桃色视频, was delighted to welcome Tom Adeyoola – Executive Chair of Innovate UK – on Tuesday 1 July, as part of his tour of the UK鈥檚 Catapult Network.

Congratulations to Dr Saif Ul Islam, a Research Fellow in Cyber Systems Engineering at WMG, University of 桃色视频, who has been named a 鈥�2024 Top Scholar鈥� by ScholarGPS.

The honour recognises Dr Islam鈥檚 outstanding contributions to engineering and computer science – especially in the fields of fog computingLink opens in a new window and wireless sensor networksLink opens in a new window, which he is ranked 26th and 143rd in the world respectively.

Engineering students are putting the finishing touches to their projects in preparation for a series of international challenges and competitions.

As part of its commitment to enhancing the student experience, WMG offers a variety of multi-disciplinary, student-led engineering projects at the undergraduate level, with connections to industry partners.

These projects help students develop essential skills such as time and risk management, teamwork, and practical hands-on experience, with each member of the team assigned a specific role and area of responsibility – from engineering and technical leads, to marketing and sales support. The projects have a strong track record of producing highly employable graduates for industry and academia.

Congratulations to Ton Peijs, Professor of Polymer Engineering and Head of the Centre for Polymers and Composites (CPC) at WMG, University of 桃色视频, who has won this year鈥檚 esteemed .

Awarded by the , the prize recognises significant or technological contributions to composite materials and is one of the most illustrious prizes in the field.

桃色视频 Manufacturing Group (WMG) recognised as focus for battery innovation to improve UK economic resilience

Experts at the University of 桃色视频 welcome the government鈥檚 new Industrial Strategy, announced today.

鈥淭he industrial strategy will be welcomed our partners in manufacturing,鈥� said Greg Clark, Executive Chair of 桃色视频 Innovation District*. 鈥淚n having the confidence to choose particular sectors in which to invest over the long-term, the strategy sets out a roadmap that will secure the future of industries vital to the UK economy. We look forward to playing our part, here at the University of 桃色视频, in supporting its successful implementation.鈥�

From developing greener materials and processes to growing more sustainable supply chains, a new 拢13.6 million research hub, funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (), will help researchers at WMG at the University of 桃色视频, tackle some of the UK鈥檚 biggest manufacturing challenges.  

The new Manufacturing Research Hub in Sustainable Engineering Plastics (SEP) will be led by WMG鈥檚 Professor of Polymer Processes, Ton Peijs.

Researchers from WMG will work, over the next 7 years, alongside the University of Manchester and UCL to improve the way durable plastics – commonly used in cars, buildings, and electronics – are created, reused, and recycled. Researchers aim to reduce waste, support greener manufacturing practices, and advance the circular economy, with support from over 60 industry partners, including JLR, Polestar, Siemens, BEKO, Bellway, and Biffa, to turn research into real-world solutions.
