SUMMARY:Women in TechWorks: From Qubits to Confidence - Verifying Quantum Error Correction
DESCRIPTION:With Rojalin Mishra\, Lead Verification Engineer (Riverlane)\nThis talk explores the engineering realities behind quantum computing\, focusing on the role of hardware verification in building reliable quantum systems. Drawing on experience as a lead verification engineer working on FPGA-based quantum error correction systems\, the speaker shares both personal career insights and the technical challenges involved in developing hardware at the frontier of emerging technology. \nThe session begins with a reflection on the speaker’s journey into hardware verification\, highlighting the importance of persistence\, analytical thinking\, and systematic problem-solving in a highly specialised field. It also examines the challenge of communicating verification work to wider teams\, and the need for collaboration across multiple engineering disciplines in quantum hardware development. \nA central theme is the demystification of quantum error correction. Through practical analogies and examples\, attendees will learn why qubits are fragile\, how errors accumulate\, and how engineers design and verify systems to maintain reliability. The talk demonstrates how abstract quantum physics becomes practical engineering through FPGA-based implementations\, error-detection circuits\, and rigorous testing methodologies. \nUsing real debugging stories from high-stakes projects\, the presentation also shows how verification provides a broader framework for structured problem-solving across engineering domains. Attendees will gain practical insights into quantum hardware\, verification engineering\, and the mindset required to innovate effectively in advanced technology sectors. \nBiography \nI am an Electronics and Communications engineer with over a decade of experience in ASIC verification\, specializing in complex digital systems and verification methodologies. I currently serve as a Lead Verification Engineer\, driving FPGA-based verification for Quantum Error Correction within the rapidly evolving field of Quantum Computing.

SUMMARY:Exploring UK–Canada Semiconductor Collaboration: An Introduction to C2MI
DESCRIPTION:Following the MoU agreement between TechWorks and the Canadian Semiconductor Council last year\, the two organisations are working on practical opportunities for collaboration between the UK and Canadian semiconductor ecosystems. \nAs part of this initiative\, this webinar will introduce C2MI – Canada’s largest microelectronics and semiconductor research and development centre – to the UK semiconductor community. \nBacked by more than $400 million in advanced infrastructure\, cleanrooms and specialist equipment\, C2MI helps companies\, startups and researchers move technologies from early-stage development towards industrialisation and commercial scale. Its capabilities include MEMS\, advanced semiconductor packaging\, photonics\, 200mm and 300mm post-processing\, and emerging quantum technologies. C2MI’s experienced engineering and research teams work directly with partners to reduce technical risk\, solve complex development challenges and accelerate the path from concept to commercial application. \nC2MI has already demonstrated the potential of UK and Canadian collaboration by working with the UK Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult and Canada’s National Research Council to deliver a co-packaged optical engine for AI data centres and this webinar will provide you with an insight into the Canadian semiconductor industry and the opportunities it might offer. \nDiscover: \n• The capabilities\, facilities and expertise available through C2MI\n• Opportunities to access Canadian semiconductor research and development infrastructure\n• How UK organisations can collaborate with Canadian companies\, researchers\, and innovation partners\n• Potential routes to accelerate development\, de-risk innovation and reach new markets\n• How the TechWorks–Canadian Semiconductor Council partnership can support future transatlantic collaboration

SUMMARY:Women in TechWorks: From Engineer to Leader: Building Diverse Teams That Deliver
DESCRIPTION:With Vicky Larmour\, SVP Engineering at Plextek\nWhat does it actually take to move from the software engineering coal face to leading a team of people delivering complex multi-disciplinary technology projects? In this talk\, Vicky Larmour draws on 30 years in engineering\, from hands-on software development to her role as Senior Vice President of Engineering at Plextek\, to give a candid account of that transition. She looks at the mindset shifts involved\, the mistakes she made along the way\, and what she’s learned about building teams that are both diverse and genuinely high-performing. \nVicky explores the tangible benefits diversity brings to innovation and problem-solving\, reflecting on a moment where looking at a problem in a different way allowed the team to break through an impasse; alongside actionable strategies – which can be as simple as making a genuine effort to demonstrate allyship to minority groups – for fostering inclusive team cultures where individuals can thrive. She also discusses approaches to inclusive hiring\, covering everything from reducing bias in recruitment processes to creating environments that attract and retain a broader range of talent. \nThis session offers valuable insights for engineers considering leadership paths\, as well as for current managers aiming to build stronger\, more inclusive teams. Expect honest reflection\, practical takeaways\, and a few things Vicky wishes someone had told her 20 years ago! \nBiography \nVicky Larmour is Senior Vice President of Engineering at Plextek\, leading a multidisciplinary team of RF\, radar\, AI/ML\, electronics and software engineers. \nWith 30 years in technology consultancy in the Cambridge cluster\, she’s led teams of 250+ across three continents\, delivering projects to unlock value for clients ranging from banks to medical device startups to global satellite operators; developed software for consumer goods\, medical devices\, and LEO satellite systems; and held technical leadership roles spanning embedded systems\, RF design\, and short- and long-range wireless communications. \nA Cambridge Computer Science graduate who initially entered the field through a STEM programme for girls\, Vicky remains committed to STEM outreach\, creating pathways for the next generation – particularly young women – into engineering and technology. She mentors women across the industry and is focused on building a team culture at Plextek where people from different backgrounds feel welcomed and supported.

SUMMARY:Women in TechWorks online Town Hall Event
DESCRIPTION:Our Women in TechWorks group will be hosting an online town hall webinar designed to bring members together and share important updates. This session will provide an opportunity to connect\, stay informed\, and engage with the broader community. \nDuring the webinar\, our Steering Group will share updates on current initiatives and highlight upcoming events and opportunities. Attendees will gain insight into what’s ahead and how to get involved in shaping the future of Women in TechWorks. \nHosted by Jillian Hughes\nHead of Semiconductors & DESN Network Director @ TechWorks and Women in TechWorks Founder \nJillian began her career with a recognised apprenticeship at National Semiconductor in Greenock\, Scotland\, completing her training in 1991. Over the next 15 years\, she built deep technical expertise in semiconductor equipment and process engineering\, working with major multinational companies including Seagate Microelectronics\, Motorola\, and Freescale Semiconductor. \nShe went on to lead operations across several specialised semiconductor businesses\, focusing on the manufacture\, refurbishment\, sale\, and service of high value capital equipment. \nIn April 2020\, Jillian was appointed NMI Director at Techworks\, the UK’s semiconductor trade association. In this role\, she drew on her extensive industry knowledge to support UK semiconductor companies and worked closely with industry and academia to raise the sector’s profile within Government. \nJillian later served as Chief Operating and Financial Officer at Dalrada Technology and Deposition Technology\, where she oversaw the development and manufacture of advanced capital equipment for emerging semiconductor markets. She has since returned to Techworks as Head of Semiconductors\, leading the Semiconductor Systems Design Network (DESN) and bringing together the UK’s dynamic chip design community to drive collaboration\, innovation\, and knowledge sharing. \nJillian also serves on the Board of Directors at Wafer Fab Solutions\, where she provides strategic business and financial guidance. \nRegister
