Event summary
Across two days, more than 250 manufacturing leaders come together for candid discussion, strategic debate and practical problem-solving through 25 closed-door roundtable sessions designed exclusively for senior decision-makers.
UK manufacturers are facing a convergence of pressures unlike any seen in recent years. Rising labour costs. Persistent productivity challenges. Global trade uncertainty. Supply chain disruption. Workforce shortages. AI-driven transformation. Increasing cyber and sustainability obligations.
The 2026 summit has been rebuilt for this new reality.
The conversation has evolved from digital transformation programmes to the business outcomes they are expected to deliver.
