2018 is the third year for the STEM Festival, being held at the Kingsgate Conference Centre, where STEM celebrities and industry experts including BAFTA award-winning TV presenter Maddie Moate and author of the Horrible Science series Nick Arnold will be in attendance, ?exhibiting live demos and talks.

The festival, which is funded entirely from corporate sponsorship was founded and organised by Digital People in Peterborough (DPiP), a non-profit community group, whose mission for Peterborough STEM Festival is to engage, inspire, and develop children and adults, and work with parents and educators to inspire today’s youth into becoming tomorrow’s science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) innovators.

In particular, as an official Ada Lovelace Day event, the festival strives to encourage and highlight what’s new, unusual or surprising; to inspire by giving participants the opportunity to obtain hands-on experience; and to enhance interest by providing examples and introductions to role models and encourage children, particularly girls and young women to take an interest in STEM subjects.
