# Event Details - **Event Name**: Manufacturing & Fabrication for Critical Technologies SIG - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 22 Jun, 2026 at 01:30 pm – Mon, 22 Jun, 2026 at 03:45 pm - **Event Description**: Shaping Scotland’s manufacturing future: Deep Tech Growth programme & Infrastructure ProposalsAbout this EventBackgroundScotland has a well-established and growing deep tech sector, with recognised strengths in semiconductors, photonics, sensing, quantum technologies, and advanced manufacturing. Building on these capabilities, a range of national and regional initiatives are supporting investment in infrastructure, capability development, and industrial growth across the country.This includes activity emerging through programmes such as the Deep Tech Growth Programme and initiatives within the Glasgow City Region, alongside wider sector investment. Together, these efforts aim to strengthen Scotland’s ability to design, develop, manufacture, and scale advanced technologies domestically, while supporting resilient supply chains and long-term economic growth.As many of these initiatives continue to develop in response to industry needs, ongoing engagement with stakeholders remains essential to ensuring investment priorities remain relevant, targeted, and impactful.Event OverviewThis session will bring together stakeholders from industry, academia, and the public sector to discuss how investments in Scotland’s deep tech and manufacturing ecosystem are developing in practice.The event will feature a series of short presentations providing insight into ongoing programmes, infrastructure proposals, and capability development activity across the sector. These presentations will be followed by facilitated discussion.Particular attention will be given to how initiatives such as the Deep Tech Growth Programme are supporting companies at different stages of growth, and how infrastructure-focused proposals could help expand Scotland’s capacity for manufacturing and commercialisation.The session is intended to provide a constructive forum for discussion, allowing participants to share perspectives and feedback that can help inform the continued development of these programmes and proposals over the longer term.Discussion ThemesTopics for discussion will include:how current proposals build on existing regional and national strengthsindustry perspectives on emerging initiativesalignment between current activities and emerging market needsopportunities to strengthen internationalisation across the ecosystemthe contribution these initiatives could make to sustainable economic growth and local communitiesAgenda13.00 - 13.30 Coffee/tea/networking13.30 - 13.40 Welcome from Technology Scotland13.40 – 13.50 National Centre for Advanced Semiconductor Packaging (NCASP) – Gladys Benghalia (NMIS)13.50 – 14.00 The Critical Technologies Accelerator: Laser Supply Chain and Advanced Packaging – Anthony Kelly (CTA)14.00 – 14.10 Laser Supply Chain and Advanced Packaging: JWNC role in the project and future plans – Evelyn Toma (JWNC)14.10 – 14.20 Development of Advanced Manufacturing Capacity for Sensor Technology – Hadi Heidari (Neuranics)14.20 - 14.40 Q&A session14.40 -14.50 Break14.50 – 15.05 Deep Tech Growth Programme + Q&A – Scott Wilson (SE)15.05 – 15.45 Facilitated discussions - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/glasgow/manufacturing-and-fabrication-for-critical-technologies-sig/100001988986446002 - **Event Categories**: business, meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours 15 minutes - Location: Technology and Innovation Centre (TIC) Conference, Meetings & Events - University of Strathclyde - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: EUR ## Event venue details - **city**: Glasgow - **state**: SC - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Technology and Innovation Centre (TIC) Conference, Meetings & Events - University of Strathclyde - **lat**: 55.86021150000001 - **long**: -4.2424439 - **full address**: Technology and Innovation Centre (TIC) Conference, Meetings & Events - University of Strathclyde, 99 George Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Manufacturing & Fabrication for Critical Technologies SIG - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/418881e48227faf057fc3feb9ce59b13bd4b52e33cef804e8b8d5e55efcac400-rimg-w1200-h675-dc15345f-gmir.jpg?v=1781074311 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Manufacturing & Fabrication for Critical Technologies SIG being held? - **A:** Manufacturing & Fabrication for Critical Technologies SIG takes place on Mon, 22 Jun, 2026 at 01:30 pm to Mon, 22 Jun, 2026 at 03:45 pm at Technology and Innovation Centre (TIC) Conference, Meetings & Events - University of Strathclyde, 99 George Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Manufacturing & Fabrication for Critical Technologies SIG? - **A:** Manufacturing & Fabrication for Critical Technologies SIG is organized by Technology Scotland. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
