NERC Tech Forum 2026

Tuesday 2 June 2026 - Thursday 4 June 2026

Location: Plymouth Marine Laboratory

The NERC Tech Forum will be held Tuesday 2nd June – Thursday 4th June at Plymouth Marine Laboratory.

This is the third year the conference has been run in the current format, following a long hiatus. The event is aimed at Research Technical Professionals (RTPs) and similar roles working within technology areas in NERC and related research centers.

The aim of this event, through a mixture of talks and discussion, is to provide an opportunity for RTPs to network with others to share knowledge and form future collaborations.

The event focuses on the broad range of technologies used to enable NERC science including:

• Sampling equipment
• Hardware platforms
• Research Software Engineering
• Autonomy
• Career progression and training

Details for the NERC tech forum are still being finalised and a call for presentations is expected in February.
