Why now?
The UK remains a global force for engineering and manufacturing: driving innovation, leading on the industrial agenda, the green economy, industry 4.0 and being at the forefront of the response to the global pandemic. However, in a post-COVID and post-Brexit world, Britain’s standing, and its future, will require engineering and manufacturing to grow and strengthen.
