The Eco Heat Tech Workshop, presented by Infrared Heating Supplies, is an interactive regional masterclass dedicated to the future of energy-efficient space heating. Hosted directly at the company's Bolton technical showroom at Hartford House, this half-day educational event brings together property developers, electrical contractors, facilities managers, and forward-thinking homeowners. As the UK shifts toward Net Zero targets and transitions away from traditional fossil fuel heating systems, far infrared technology stands out as a clean, cost-effective alternative. This workshop provides attendees with clear technical insights, practical application guidelines, and direct exposure to modern electric radiant heating solutions. Understanding Far Infrared Radiant Heat Technology A primary focus of the workshop is exploring how far infrared heating operates differently from conventional convection radiators. Rather than wasting energy heating body air volumes that quickly escape, infrared systems emit radiant heat that directly warms people, walls, floors, and solid objects. Technical specialists from Infrared Heating Supplies will explain the physics behind far infrared waves, highlighting how direct surface warming creates comfortable indoor climates while mitigating damp and condensation. Delegates will examine energy efficiency metrics and learn how properly specified systems can lower operational energy usage by up to 60% compared to traditional electric convection systems. Live Demonstrations and Interactive Smart Controls Throughout the day, participants will experience live working setups of mirror heaters, ceiling-mounted framed panels, high-output bar heaters, and freestanding portable units. Interactive demonstrations will highlight how smart Wi-Fi thermostats, app-based scheduling, and multi-zone climate control systems maximize overall system efficiency. Workshop sessions will guide delegates through using modern calculation tools to accurately size heating demand based on room dimensions, ceiling heights, insulation values, and usage profiles—ensuring spaces are neither underheated nor wastefully oversized. Diverse Sector Applications: Residential, Heritage, and Commercial The workshop covers tailored application strategies across residential refurbishments, commercial offices, public buildings, and historic spaces. Real-world case studies will highlight how non-invasive infrared bar heaters protect architectural heritage in listed buildings and churches without requiring intrusive pipework or extensive structural modifications. Commercial facility directors will discover how zone-focused heating helps lower running costs in large open spaces, high-ceiling warehouses, and intermittently occupied community centers by warming only active zones rather than vast empty airspaces. Expert Advisory and Networking Opportunities Held in an engaging showroom environment, the workshop offers an ideal platform for professional networking and technical exchange. Attendees can connect directly with experienced heating engineers, discuss active floor plans, and evaluate bespoke heating options for upcoming construction or retrofit projects. The technical team will offer personalized, one-on-one layout reviews, giving every delegate a clear roadmap for integrating infrared technology into their properties efficiently. Workshop Schedule and Visitor Registration The event takes place on Thursday, 15th October 2026, running from 10:00 AM to 03:00 PM. Attendance is free of charge, with complimentary tea, coffee, and lunch provided for pre-registered delegates. Located centrally in Bolton on Weston Street with free on-site parking, the venue is accessible from across Greater Manchester and Lancashire. Register online today via the Infrared Heating Supplies portal to secure your seat and explore next-generation clean heating technology.

Welcome to the official event overview for the upcoming Gravity Media Broadcast & Live Event Tech Summit, taking place in the heart of Watford, United Kingdom. As a global leader in complex live creative production, media services, and facilities, Gravity Media is bringing together industry pioneers, broadcast engineers, content creators, and corporate media strategists for an immersive day of technological exploration. This premier event is meticulously designed to unpack the rapid transformations occurring across live sports, high-end entertainment, state occasions, and corporate conferences. Attendees will gain exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to the infrastructure that powers some of the world's most-watched broadcasts, exploring how cutting-edge engineering meets creative storytelling on a global scale. Innovations in Remote Production and Live MediaThe media and entertainment landscape is undergoing a massive paradigm shift toward hyper-connected, flexible, and sustainable workflows. Throughout this summit, keynote sessions and technical panels will dive deep into the mechanics of reverse remote production, ultra-reliable wireless RF services, and advanced outside broadcast (OB) truck configurations. Industry experts from Gravity Media will demonstrate how state-of-the-art production centers and cloud-integrated media management systems are lowering latency while maximizing viewer engagement. Participants will discover actionable frameworks for designing, building, and operating scalable broadcast architectures, ensuring they remain at the absolute forefront of digital content delivery and transmission excellence. Immersive Technical Demonstrations and Facility ToursOne of the most anticipated aspects of the summit is the interactive technical showcase hosted at Gravity Media’s primary UK operational hub in Watford. Attendees will experience firsthand walk-throughs of specialized camera systems, cutting-edge audio control setups, and networked post-production suites. Technical leads will guide visitors through live multi-cam streaming simulations, showcasing how complex signals are managed seamlessly from venue to master control rooms. These hands-on labs provide a rare opportunity to test high-tech broadcast gear, evaluate 4K-ready lenses, and consult directly with seasoned systems integration engineers regarding custom infrastructure upgrades. Networking and Collaborative Industry GrowthBeyond the technical exhibitions, the summit serves as a high-caliber networking crucible for professionals driving the future of media operations. Brand managers, executive producers, network directors, and enterprise communication heads will have ample space to connect, share insights, and discuss collaborative ventures during structured networking luncheons and evening receptions. Whether you are looking to source end-to-end project management support for an upcoming global summit or seeking strategic technical consultancy, this event fosters invaluable peer-to-peer dialogues designed to forge long-standing partnerships within the international broadcast community.

As the North West branch of the Institute of Asset Management continues to lead regional professional development, this intensive workshop focuses on the practical application of Digital Twin technology within the Liverpool City Region’s infrastructure projects. The event addresses the growing need for real-time data integration in long-term asset planning. Attendees will engage with expert-led sessions detailing how a "living" digital replica of physical assets can drastically reduce maintenance costs and improve safety outcomes. The narrative of the day moves from the theoretical framework of ISO 55001 to the granular reality of sensors, BIM, and data analytics. The morning session provides a deep dive into the synchronization of physical assets with their digital counterparts, exploring how predictive maintenance can prevent systemic failures before they occur. Case studies from recent Merseyside maritime and transportation upgrades will be used to illustrate successful implementations. In the afternoon, the focus shifts to a collaborative environment where delegates participate in a live simulation of a digital twin deployment. This workshop is specifically designed to bridge the gap between high-level asset management strategy and the technical execution required in the modern digital age. Networking breaks are strategically placed to allow professionals from diverse backgrounds—including water utilities, local councils, and engineering firms—to share their unique challenges and solutions. By the end of the day, participants will have a clear roadmap for initiating digital twin projects within their own organizations, supported by a network of local peers.
