Introduction
This competition, taking place on Friday 7th March 2025 at the University of Manchester, is for early career engineers and researchers (35 year old and younger) to present their transformers related work in a short presentation (8 mins talk + 2 mins Q&A). Awards and certificates will be given to the best three presenters.
