The Intersect Faraday Partnership is to present the findings of the International Technology Mission to Europe, which examined commercialisation and integration of sensor technologies.

On Thursday 15th April the Intersect Faraday Partnership will present the findings of the International Technology Mission to Europe, which examined commercialisation and integration of sensor technologies based on micro-electro-mechanical (MEMS) devices.

This is an all day free event and there will be several speakers on the day including the Chairman of Sira Innovation and Director of the Intersect Faraday Partnership, Dr Andrew Crookell.

Topics that will be discussed include investment and funding, standardisation of Microsystems, an overview of research on microsensors as well as other aspects and implications of the mission.

Where: The Royal College of Pathologists, London When: 10:00am, Thursday 15th April Sensors based on MEMs technologies have a widespread use in automotive, defence, pharmaceutical, biotechnological and environmental applications.

The mission compared the UK exploitation of these technologies with the experiences of other European countries.

This comparison aimed to establish best practice for the UK and to encourage further government funding of the micro-sensor industry.
