I will also be providing an exciting update on the future direction of the Aerospace Growth Partnership Boardand what that might mean for manufacturing in the UK and the supply chain in particular.
As in previous workshops, the presentations will help us to stimulate the discussion and debate we will then have through facilitated breakout groups where you will be encouraged to share your views on the future of our industry.
