About this listen

In this week’s episode, Editorial Team's Nicola Cope explores the remarkable stories of veteran engineers who've helped to shape our technology, drawing parallels to modern engineering challenges.

This episode shows the amazing journeys of engineers who have worked through big changes within our industry—much like today's IoT professionals facing critical industry shifts.

We cover:

  • Personal stories of how veteran engineers, from RAF to Rolls-Royce, adapted in engineering
  • Sharing of knowledge between the different generations in engineering
  • The importance of resilience when solving tech problems

We hope you enjoy this celebration of the valuable contributions of veteran engineers. It serves as a reminder of the importance of connection with different generations. By sharing their stories, we honour not only their achievements but also highlight how valuable experience and knowledge are in shaping our world.

We’re proud to have partnered with Age UK Shropshire Telford& Wrekin to share these inspiring stories.
