EW BrightSparks in partnership with RS Components
By celebrating the achievements of the most talented young people in the engineering world we can help inspire the next generation. In its fourth year, our annual BrightSparks competition with Electronics Weekly highlights the talent of young electronics engineers in the UK.
2020 saw a record number of entrants, Clive Cauldwell (Group Editor EW) was one of the judges “It always astonishes me that our emerging generation of design engineers is able to balance the challenges they face in their careers and yet find the time to volunteer for STEM initiatives and help with community projects.”
