We’re pleased to confirm that our Chairman Peter Rolton has been featured in the November issue of the CIBSE Journal (page 26), in an article discussing the future of the UK’s engineering sector following the EU referendum.
Peter shares his thoughts on the concerns held by the industry as a result of the UK’s vote to leave the EU and describes how this shift may affect future research and funding for the engineering sector in the UK, among other important factors which will need to be considered carefully when engineering our post-Brexit future.
Alongside the concerns, in this piece Peter also discusses what the engineering industry should be working towards in order to overcome the challenges that Brexit has presented, to ensure that as a newly independent nation, the UK maintains competitiveness within the global market.
Rolton have steadily developed our work and commitment to the North East region over the last few years through our Newcastle office and we were pleased to move our team to a new city central location in 2024. We are therefore delighted to reinforce this commitment by joining the NewcastleGateshead Initiative as a Corporate Partner for 2025.
As we approach the end of the year and the holidays, we reflect on a year full of expansion and growth and look forward to 2025.
With more than 44 years of Rolton this year has seen us developing our business internally and externally, strengthening the board, refreshing the brand, expanding the office network and sharing our thought leadership.
Rolton is proud to become a member of More Than a Building, an extraordinary network of architects, developers, engineers, contractors and others from the construction sector who are creating better futures around the world, in partnership with charity Article 25.
