Happy #WiMWednesday! On the International Day of Women in Industry last month, we hosted a webinar with UNIDO to have an important conversation about accelerating gender equality in manufacturing. The session brought together an exceptional panel of leaders and practitioners driving change across the sector, including Roisin Carr (Molson Coors Beverage Company), Poggy Murray Whitham BEng (Hons) MSc PgCert CMgr FCMI MIET AMIMechE CFSAT, Nipuni Karunaratne (Rolls-Royce) and Alexandra Walker (formerly Ford Motor Company). They explored how to accelerate gender equality in manufacturing, sharing insights, lived experiences, and actionable ideas to create more inclusive workplaces.

🎙️ Episode 4 is our last for this series 🎙️ Our podcast People in Innovation concludes its Engineering Biology series by exploring how the UK can build a thriving bioeconomy, and why biology means business. In this episode, our host Steve Bagshaw, Chair of High Value Manufacturing Catapult is joined by Tracey Taylor-Preston, Sector Manager – Trade & Investment Engineering Biology, Bioeconomy & Agri-tech at York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority, and Sophie Walton, Director of Strategic Partnerships at CPI to discuss what it takes to turn innovation into real-world impact, connecting discovery, scale-up, manufacturing, skills and investment. They highlight the importance of a joined-up ecosystem to ensure technologies don’t “die on the journey”, and why collaboration across industry, academia and government is key to unlocking growth. From infrastructure and supply chains to long-term partnerships, the conversation explores how the UK can move faster and compete globally. Despite the opportunity, challenges remain in translating innovation at pace and creating the conditions for businesses to start, stay and scale in the UK. Join this final discussion on the future of the UK bioeconomy, the challenges ahead, and the opportunity to turn innovation into lasting impact.

Eleven things UK composites manufacturing needs, but doesn’t yet have. That’s the honest read of the new composites roadmap from the High Value Manufacturing Catapult. Eleven capability gaps, mapped against where the sector has to be over the next decade. The Modern Industrial Strategy named composites as part of the UK’s growth plan. The roadmap is what closing the distance between ambition and capability actually looks like. It's written by engineers, with the milestones and the missing pieces named. It sits alongside eight others in HVM Catapult’s new Technology Strategy, written to align UK manufacturing around shared priorities and key technologies. Matt Scott makes the case for composites below, highlighting three emerging capabilities which will decide whether UK composites keeps pace internationally – or quietly falls behind while others move. Worth reading if you sit in advanced manufacturing or rely on a supply chain that does.
