Innovating technologies for neuromorphic computing

23 - 25 November 2026 Discussion meeting and Transforming our Future event organised by Professor Stephen Furber CBE FREng FRS, Professor Judith Driscoll FREng FRS, Professor Stuart Parkin FREng FRS, Dr Sebastian C Dixon and Professor Tony Kenyon The world is on the brink of an AI revolution. However, AI’s demand for computational power, doubling every 2–3 months, is unsustainable. Neuromorphic (brain-inspired) hardware offers transformative gains in energy efficiency without compromising performance. Achieving this vision requires close collaboration across materials, devices, systems and applications. To explore these themes, we are holding: • A two-day Discussion Meeting (23–24 November), bringing together leading academic researchers to explore fundamental advances and challenges in neuromorphic computing, fostering new interactions and collaborations across disciplines • A one-day Transforming our Future event (25 November), focused on broader impacts, translation, and future directions for neuromorphic technologies For more information please visit the Royal Society website. Please note that registration will remain open until the event begins. However, if you register within one week of the event, your name badge will be printed upon arrival. Attendees are welcome to join for any of the meeting days; attendance across all three days is not required.
