Collaborate to Innovate 2017 winners announced
Collaborative engineering projects ranging from the design of the world's first tidal lagoon to a fundamental breakthrough in the design of lithium batteries were among the winners announced at The Engineer’s Collaborate to Innovate awards event in London on the 5th September.
Judged by a panel of leading UK engineers - and sponsored by Frazer-Nash Consultancy and Yamazaki Mazak - winning entries had to demonstrate that they were innovative, collaborative and likely to have an impact in their field of application.
The event provided a fascinating snapshot of some of the trends and technologies that are defining modern engineering, and also highlighted the degree to which industry and academia are collaborating to solve fundamental problems across a variety of sectors.
It also demonstrated, through its Young Innovator award, the ways in which industry and academia are finding innovative ways to work with schools in order to inspire the next generation of engineers.
The winners, listed in full below, will present their projects at The Engineer's Collaborate to Innovate Conference, which will be held on 7th December at Coventry's Manufacturing Technology Centre.
