INVITATION ONLY
Join us for a special evening marking five years of the Bhattacharyya Award — a celebration of exceptional collaboration between academia and industry. We are delighted to welcome our CEO, Dr Hayaatun Sillem CBE, and distinguished guests to honour the legacy of Lord Kumar Bhattacharyya CBE FREng FRS.
The evening will begin with an exhibition where guests can meet the 2025 finalists and explore their groundbreaking projects. This will be followed by a celebratory dinner, culminating in the announcement of this year’s Bhattacharyya Award winner.
Established in 2019, the Bhattacharyya Award pays tribute to Lord Bhattacharyya, Regius Professor of Manufacturing at the University of Warwick and founder of the Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG).
