The British Gear Association is the UK Centre of Technical Excellence for gear design, manufacture & application technologies. The Annual Technical Awareness Event (GEARS) is the leading conference for the Gear Industry in the UK and this long running seminar is considered an essential event for manufacturers, distributors and academics involved in the UK Gears Industry.
Due to the ongoing Covid 19 situation in the UK the event will be held online from 16th – 18th November 2021.
The Covid 19 crisis has affected the way we work forever especially in terms of travel and attending large events. In response to this we are embracing the opportunity to bring GEARS to a wider audience by hosting the event digitally meaning delegates can attend from anywhere in the world from the comfort of their own desk/sofa.
As with traditional GEARS conferences the online event features cutting edge interactive lectures and presentations from pre-eminent experts from leading companies, manufacturers, distributors and academics from throughout the Gear and Power Transmission Industry.
About the sessions.
Each day will focus on one area of the power transmission sector and you can attend all week or specific days or sessions.
Each session will consist of a 30-minute presentation (available for preview prior to the event when possible) followed by a live Question and Answer session with the speaker.
A full agenda for each day will be posted in September 2021.
