Exciting new elements to Toys4.0Engineers

Toys4.0Engineers is back and it’s bigger and better than ever. Following its win as Chambers Ireland’s Event of the Year, the team at Waterford Chamber have added even more elements to the event, which will take place on Thursday, 10th October in WIT Arena.

Learning and knowledge sharing has always been an integral part of the event and they are taking it a step further this year by offering professional Masterclasses, with thanks to Waterford Chamber Skillnet, which will be CPD certified for engineers.

Toys4Engineers has been a partnership between Waterford Chamber and Waterford Institute of Technology since its inception and Head of the School of Engineering Dr Ken Thomas said the Masterclasses will bring the educational element to a whole new level.

“We are really excited to have leading experts present on four crucial topics, including Cobotics, Energy Efficiency and Carbon Reduction, Additive Manufacturing and Sustainable Packaging. They will be fantastic learning opportunities for engineers and managers with each 90 minute Masterclass giving participants the key insights into the latest innovations. Most importantly they’ll also have the opportunity to ask specific questions relevant to their own company.”

Other new elements to Toys4Engineers include: a larger ‘Expo’ in the main hall and an outdoor exhibition; a ‘Networking Breakfast’; a ‘Students Seminar’; and ‘Meet the Buyer’ opportunities.

“Toys4.0Engineers will cater for everybody this year, whether you are a professional looking to see up to the minute innovations, a student considering a career in engineering or an enthusiast who is fascinated with the latest technologies. We have robots, headsets, drones, 3D printing and so much more.”

Toys4.0Engineers is free to attend and can be booked through www.toys4engineers.ie. A €25 booking fee is associated with all Masterclasses.
