Shipwrights’ Lectures Two Weeks Away

This year featuring several Senior Level Representatives of Major Marine Organisations

The 2019 Shipwrights’ Lectures are on Wednesday 16 October at the Nuffield Theatre, University of Southampton Campus. This event is free to attend and is less than a month away so book online now at:  https://www.shipwrights.co.uk/education/shipwrights-lectures/shipwright-lectures-company-attendees-application-form or in case of any queries please email  lectures@shipwrights.co.uk

The Lectures aim to inspire young people working in, or studying for, the UK leisure marine industry and to highlight our unique international position as leaders in design and technology. There are currently some 4,800 businesses and 33,000 employees generating £3.2 billion in revenue with overseas sales increasing by 16% in 2017/18. Which means everyone involved is a major contributor to the UK Economy.
