Welcome to the Summer issue of the BMTA Newsletter
Welcome to the latest issue of the BMTA newsletter. In this edition, we’re looking ahead to what the CPTPP agreement means for UK manufacturers and how the Government hopes to support British businesses in seizing the opportunities created.
We’re also revisiting the perennial issues of the industry skills gap, a topic so timeless it’s worth investigating regularly. And, talking of timelessness, we hear from the NPL about how its National Timing Centre (NTC) programme is developing an alternative, potentially primary solution for future timing.
If you would like to contribute to the next issue of the BMTA Newsletter please contact editor.bmta@abacus-comms.co.uk with a brief synopsis. Equally, should your business produce any information, white papers or interviews that you would like to share, please submit this to enquiries@ bmta.co.uk.
Enjoy the read.
