A Day to Connect, Learn, and Celebrate!
The Institute of Corrosion’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) is back, and this year we’re going in-person at the historic Neville Hall, Newcastle Upon Tyne. If you’ve been waiting for an opportunity to connect with your fellow ICorr professionals, engage with cutting-edge technical discussions, and enjoy a memorable evening of entertainment – this is it.
We’re also thrilled to announce that the evening dinner is sponsored by Correx and the ICATS team, who have generously supported this special event. Their commitment ensures an unforgettable experience for all attendees, from the fine dining to the vibrant atmosphere of the live jazz band.
Mark your calendars for 13th November 2024 and get ready for a day packed with exciting moments, insightful presentations, and great networking opportunities.
Whether you’re a seasoned ICorr member, a new face to the community, or a guest interested in the corrosion field, this is an event not to be missed!
Why Should You Attend?
To be opened by Mayor of Newcastle Rob Higgins, we’ve lined up an exceptional programme to cater to both the technical minds and the social butterflies among us:
·      Offshore Wind Technical Program
Are you intrigued by the future of renewable energy? Our Offshore Wind Technical Program will explore the latest advancements in this thriving sector. Running from 2:15 – 4:00 p.m., this session is a great opportunity to learn, share insights, and discuss innovations that are transforming the offshore industry.
·      Exclusive AGM Event
Starting at 4:30 p.m., the AGM is your chance to catch up on the latest developments within the Institute of Corrosion, hear from our President, and get a detailed look at the Council’s work. It’s the perfect forum for members to ask questions, provide feedback, and take part in shaping the future of ICorr.
·      A Grand Evening Reception
And then… the evening begins! From 6:15 p.m., we’re hosting a drinks reception where you can enjoy a glass of bubbly while mingling with colleagues and friends. This leads into our elegant gala dinner, complete with a three-course meal and live jazz to set the perfect atmosphere. It’s a fantastic opportunity to relax, unwind, and celebrate another successful year for ICorr.
