In this jam-packed edition, we start off with an interview from Industry Minister, Lee Rowley, who commends the “ingenuity” and “flexibility” of UK manufacturers over the past few challenging years. We also have a feature on manufacturers journey to digital transformation – “failure to plan is planning to fail.” Our editorial team has been on the road to bring you three factory visits, to manufacturers Leonardo Helicopters, Gripple and Origin. Also, read on for a round up of this year’s excellent Industrial Data Summit, where manufacturers from across the UK came to Birmingham to share insights and solutions to their data journeys. We’ve got all this and plenty more in our May/June issue.
