High Value Manufacturing Catapult

𝗖𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀-𝗗𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀 🚗🚢✈ In Mar 2022, together with 38 organisations, WMG led a ground-breaking safety assurance framework approach that has the potential to be applied across automated transport modes in land, air, and marine. This concept evolved into the Cross-Domain Safety Assurance policy paper launched last year and led to adoption in the UK and globally in the past year. 👇 In this video, Professor Siddartha Khastgir, Head of Safe Autonomy at WMG, talked about the key findings of this policy paper. Today, we are hosting our yearly ministerial event to share the ecosystem’s achievements in the past 15 months and our next steps with the wider automated transport systems ecosystem. 📝 To read this project's policy paper, please visit https://bit.ly/3z26uVV ✉ For companies and organisations that would like to be involved in this project, please email SafeAutonomy@warwick.ac.uk.

Welcoming today's launch of the government's plans for an Industrial Strategy our CEO, Katherine Bennett CBE said: “The UK needs a bold and ambitious industrial strategy. With the stability it provides, businesses can harness innovation to drive productivity, scale-up supply chains, transform their approach to skills and compete on a global stage. “The UK manufacturing sector is the engine behind our net zero ambitions and sustainable economic growth; the Green Paper, with its recognition of advanced manufacturing, will provide an invaluable framework for the next ten years. “This roadmap and the subsequent industrial strategy will enable the High Value Manufacturing Catapult, with the support of Innovate UK, to accelerate the industrial transformation the UK needs to attract major investment, secure high-value jobs and build national resilience.” #industrialstrategy #industrialpolicy Department for Business and Trade Jonathan Reynolds MP Clare Barclay
