SUMMARY:ERA Doctoral Showcase @ ERA UK Energy Innovation Expo'26
DESCRIPTION:The ERA Doctoral Showcase provides an opportunity for PhD or EngD researchers from ERA partners to present their research to the wide range of experts\, researchers\, industry specialists and government representatives attending the ERA Energy Innovation Expo’26 on 16th June 2026 at Vaillant Live\, Derby. Around 10 doctoral researchers will be chosen to give lightening presentations (3 minutes\, 3 slides consisting of one title slide and 2 content slides)\, on the main stage of the conference. Our aim is to showcase the brilliant energy and net-zero research taking place across the ERA partnership. \nPresenters will receive coaching and support for their presentation through a workshop\, 1:1 mentoring and live rehearsal time provided by the ERA Skills team. \nTo express your  interest in presenting at the ERA Energy Innovation Expo ’26 Doctoral Showcase\, you are invited to fill in the following simple on-line form: ERA Energy Innovation Expo’26 – Doctoral Showcase  – Fill out form . \nExpressions of Interest must be submitted by: 12 noon\, Monday 23rd March 2026. \nEligible applicants will then be contacted and asked to provide their presentations slides. Final choices for presenters will be based on the submitted slides. \nFurther information on East Midlands Tech Week\, of which the ERA Energy Innovation Expo’26 forms part\, can be found at: East Mids Tech Week | Explore\, Connect\, Innovate Today \nThe call for expressions of interest is open\, and I really hope that you will consider taking up the opportunity to showcase your research to this conference. Conference attendance is free and there may be some financial support available to presenters where the cost of travel or caring responsibilities e.g. childcare are a barrier to attendance (subject to separate application).
