The UK Magnetics Society is excited to announce Magnetic Horizons, a new two-day event taking place in February 2026 in Birmingham. Delivered in collaboration with the Rare Earth Industry Association (REIA) and the Institute of Physics Magnetism Group, this event is designed to bring together the magnetics community across industry and academia and everything else in-between.
With a strong focus on collaboration, innovation, and networking, Magnetic Horizons will explore a broad range of topics including permanent magnets, soft magnetic materials, material supply chains, magnetic sensors, superconductivity, magnetic applications, power electronics, magnetic modelling, and emerging technologies.
The event will also feature the return of the Challenges in Applied Magnetism workshop, now integrated into the main programme, providing a dedicated platform for discussing real-world technical and industrial challenges.
More details to come so please watch this space. We’re hoping to include a tour of the nearby magnet recycling facilities at Tyseley, an excellent opportunity to see cutting-edge recycling technology in action.
In a new approach we’re inviting potential speakers to submit a short application, aiming to curate a diverse and dynamic programme of presentations that reflects the full breadth of the community.
Join us in Birmingham for an event that promises insight, innovation, and invaluable connections. Register your interest below.
