<p class="MsoNormal">Dear C-IoT Management Group,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Apologies for the rather short notice, but we’re running a workshop next Friday afternoon to bring together researchers from Engineering + ECS interested in the topic of ‘smart infrastructure’, to identify mutual challenges and explore
new collaborations. See the attached agenda for more context.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m looking for attendees from ECS who have some related track record in this space, and are interested in exploring potential new collaborations. If you’re interested in attending, or think that someone else in your group should, please
can I ask you/them to register at <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/smart-instrumentation-for-iot-workshop-tickets-76755550919">
https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/smart-instrumentation-for-iot-workshop-tickets-76755550919</a> so that we have an idea of numbers? Please restrict to academic attendees – if you think a postdoc would be ideal to attend, please check with me first. I’m looking
for those that can actively contribute to collaborative supervision, proposals, etc.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are attending, would you be interested in giving a short technical talk on your (or that of your group’s/colleagues’) interests and track-record in this space?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cheers,<o:p></o:p></p>
