With just 2 weeks to go, we’re thrilled to announce that Cummins will serve as the headline supporter of this year’s event in Newcastle this October.

STEMFest, coordinated by the STEM Hub, delivered by RTC North, will feature an unforgettable, hands-on exhibition led by industry experts. Around 60 local companies will come together to highlight the breadth of career opportunities in the STEM sector across the region.
