Date: 24th May 2012
Venue: Hughes Hall, Cambridge
We invite you to the first meeting in this series, aiming to address potential networking and collaboration opportunities between the traditional branches of engineering, manufacturing and nanotechnology in the field of smart, sustainable buildings and structures. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the various aspects of nano-composites and smart-coating, environmental and remote sensing devices and systems, energy harvesting, enhancement of natural and artificial composite materials and their up-scalable manufacturability.
