Manufacturing Summit - A Question of Manufacturing

A summit meeting on the sector’s most pressing challenges.

For manufacturers, there are urgent strategic issues around commodity prices and fuel/energy costs.

The Royal Society of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce, London.

Apart from the obvious pressures these bring about, there are opportunities too. They arise from narrowing manufacturing/logistics/labour cost advantages enjoyed by LCCs, the potential of new ‘green’ markets and incentives to become more productive through energy efficiencies. This Manufacturing Summit with its 'Question Time' style panel of cross-party politicians, prominent industrialists and industry experts chaired by Sunday Times Economics Editor David Smith will answer delegates’ questions on these urgent and pressing issues. At facilitated Round Table sessions we will then endeavour to get underneath them and begin to find some resolutions.
