A
two-day symposium on Energies and Green House Gas Mitigation Technologies
was held on the 28th - 29th September, 2006. Sponsored by the SPS
London Office in conjunction with Imperial College London and The
University of Tokyo, the symposium took place at the Kensington
Campus of Imperial College London. Seven researchers from Japan
and eight from the UK were invited to speak on the latest and future
counter global warming technologies.
This extremely topical and important theme attracted over 200 researchers,
students and representatives of UK and Japanese government agencies
and corporations to the event.
|
|
| The symposium marked the signing of a Memorandum of
Understanding to conduct more extensive exchange activities between
The University of Tokyo and Imperial College London. |
