Join us for a showcase of the latest technological innovations in the fields of education, IT, AV and networking. Transparent’s annual expo brings together a mixture of both well-known and emerging manufacturers to show off some of their most cutting-edge technologies. Everything from drones and robots right to cybersecurity solutions and interactive panels have been demonstrated previously; providing an eclectic blend of tech to match everyone’s interests.
This year’s expo will be held in the amazing Boathouse #4 which is situated within Portsmouth’s Historic Dockyard. Those who attended the Transparent Expo in 2016, aboard the HMS Warrior, may remember this venue as it’s the same building we had lunch and post-expo drinks inside. You can read more about the Boathouse on this page, but there are plenty of intriguing activities and sights to see both in Boathouse 4 and throughout the Historic Dockyard. It should be a fantastic day out of the office!
This year we are giving away a £50 Amazon voucher to everybody in attendance to ensure each and every person gets something from the day!
The Boathouse was restored and opened to the public with support from the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Regional Growth Fund.
On the ground floor of Boathouse 4, the International Boatbuilding Training College (IBTC) Portsmouth, and Highbury College Portsmouth teach traditional boatbuilding skills and marine engineering.
On the upper floor The Forgotten Craft exhibition tells the incredible story of small boats in the British Navy, including the display of several small craft. The exhibition overlooks the main workshop, so visitors can watch real boatbuilding in action.
Boathouse 4 Restaurant, also on the upper level, offers a stunning view of the Harbour as well as superb food, drinks and service.
