  • Dr Drew Nelson, CEO IQE
  • Prof Diana Huffaker, Director, Institute for Compound Semiconductors
  • Dr Wyn Meredith, Director, Compound Semiconductor Centre
  • Prof Peter Smowton, Director, The EPSRC Compound Semiconductor Manufacturing Hub
  • Dr Andy Sellars, Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult
  • Presentations will be followed by a Q&A.
