The Engineering Innovations Forum was initiated in 1990 under the name "Engineering Action Forum", and has been part of National Engineering Week ever since. It was established as an open forum to focus on current topics from the engineering point of view. The idea was to promote the work engineers do, the way they do it, and how it benefits society in general. Previous topics have included robotics, electricity supply, nanotechnology, "green" energy, housing, computers, virtual reality, food, construction, and biomedicine.
