The Manufacturer October 2022

The October issue continues our build up to Digital Manufacturing Week 2022; featuring Part 2 of Reporter James Devonshire’s Smart Factory Expo preview, where he catches up with headline sponsors Deloitte, Porsche-owned MHP, Made Smarter, Invest Liverpool City Region and Nokia. Multimedia Editor Tom St John sits down with three industry leaders who will be participating at this year’s Manufacturing Leaders’ Summit to get the lowdown on some of the primary discussion points at the event. And Conference Production Manager, Ashley Oulton, gives a sneak preview of the SME Growth Summit and introduces us to some of the keynote speakers. In addition, we’re also featuring an interview with ASMPT UK (formerly ASM Assembly Systems Weymouth), a company that claimed two titles at last year’s The Manufacturer MX (TMMX) Awards. Away from the show, we have a fascinating tour of the LUSH factory in Poole, where our editorial team took a visit. There’s all that and more to read in this edition.
