Counting down to Silverstone Technology Cluster’s Annual Conference & VIP lounge at AES 2022

Tech businesses attending the Silverstone Technology Conference’s Annual Conference (Tues 22 November) will have the opportunity to hear from and potentially collaborate with the likes of Amazon Web Services, the UK Space Agency and US Army representatives.

Senior figures from all three organisations will be among the guest speakers at the Conference which has become a favourite fixture on the UK’s tech industry calendar thanks to the STC’s and its membership’s growing influence in advanced engineering, manufacturing, electronics and software.

This year’s Conference will take place at The Stables, Wavendon, Milton Keynes and be held in association with Silverstone Park, a founding member of the STC. Further support will come from Hexagon and Partner Electronics.

The event offers businesses from across the UK extensive networking opportunities.

STC CEO Pim van Baarsen (pictured above) commented:

“The Silverstone Technology Cluster’s Annual Conference has quickly established itself as a ‘must attend’ event for the UK’s engineering and tech community.

“Each year, the Conference not only showcases the skills and capabilities across the cluster, but also highlights new business opportunities, novel ideas and visions for the future.

“Our flagship event truly brings together business leaders from across the country to learn, network and be inspired and 2022 will be no different, with a range of exciting speakers and panelists providing insights and announcing brand new opportunities for companies across various sectors.”

Pim added:

“We believe that switching the Conference to The Stables takes the event to another level and we can’t wait to engage with Cluster companies there.”

Prior to the Conference, the STC will have a high-profile presence at the Advanced Engineering Show (AES) at NEC Birmingham, next Weds 2-Thurs 3 Nov, where it will host the event’s VIP Lounge which Silverstone Park will also support.

AES is the UK’s leading annual advanced manufacturing and supply chain event and its VIP Lounge is a hotspot for networking among tech businesses.
