Martin McBrien founded Cambridge University Eco Racing in Jan 2007, and led the team through the development of their first vehicle, Affinity. He studied at MIT in 2006-2007 as part of the Cambridge-MIT Exchange Programme and graduated from Cambridge with an MEng (Hons) in Mechanical Engineering in June 2008. Martin now works at Cambridge technology consulting firm Sagentia.

Martin discusses the progress CUER has made from the team’s formation in 2007 through to its first major competition, the World Solar Challenge in Australia. He will also discuss the applications of solar car technology and whether we will all be driving around using the power of the sun in the future.
