The Manufacturer’s Annual Leaders Conference (TMALC) line up of topics and speakers is poised to answer all the questions around what the 4th industrial revolution will mean for the UK manufacturing industry.

From the late 1700s, when the 1st industrial revolution started in the UK, through to the modern day, the manufacturing sector has had to embrace advancements which make production more efficient.

Event Producer Nicholas Cox, commented: “With the pace of innovation set at a frightening rate, clear information on what is available and the value added benefits of these new technologies is vital for any investment decisions.  It is inevitable that the successful companies of tomorrow will have a firm grasp on what today’s technology can offer presently.  

The Manufacturer’s Annual Leaders Conference 2016 looks beyond the hype and theory to real world applications and real world benefits of Industry 4.0 technology”
