During 2015 the public was made more aware of cyber security threats and the real advent of self-driving cars made us more attuned to safety.
“Security” and “Safety” are sexy (well almost) and critical for many electronic products. Today the spotlight shines more brightly on safety, security and regulation through certification for FPGA based designs.
This event will explore technology issues implementing FPGA based systems where safety and security are prime considerations and when standards based certification must be met.
NMI’s network meetups assemble a melting pot of engineers from different sectors to share experience and latest experience. The aim is to educate and enthral and to return to the work place with ideas, solutions and knowledge. The content of the meeting will be geared for a technical audience with ample time for discussion and networking.
Would you like to speak? There a few open slots and NMI invites you to propose a topic. It’s a great way to connect with the industry and to show case the cool stuff your company does. Contact Pete Davy – 07979 706 357.
