Global Manufacturing Festival

19th August 2012

The Global Manufacturing Festival: Sheffield, is an unashamedly business led festival.

It focuses on the areas of manufacturing where UK businesses can make money in an international world over many years. Manufacturing is about making things in many sectors like engineering, food, digital, software, aerospace, power generation, medical etc but the UK does not compete internationally in any of these areas on cost it competes on knowledge, quality and service. The GMF is the place to be if that is where your company is already, or needs to be in the future. It is a major influencer of government policy sitting at the hub of the UK's manufacturing export led supply chains. Manufacturing needs to help balance the UK budget and this festival is focused on that. Please see www.globalmanufacturingfestival.com for all tickets
