Our 45th Anniversary
45 years of WMG
Celebrating innovation, collaboration, and cutting-edge research.
Shaping tomorrow's world today
Since 1980, WMG has pushed the boundaries. We’ve helped make the world a better place through innovations that solve real-life problems and brought together some of the brightest minds across industry and academia.
We’ve helped UK manufacturing thrive by empowering our collaborators to become more sustainable, resilient, competitive and future-fit, and shaped the next generation of engineers through world-leading education.
Through ground-breaking research, we’ve also helped create the knowledge and technologies required to deliver impact for industry, people, and the environment.
As we celebrate our 45th year, we’re honouring our past, celebrating our present, and looking ahead to our future.
To everyone who has been a part of our journey so far, thank you.
