00:00Thank you so much for joining us today.
00:02We'll see you next time.
00:30We're gathered here today in Sheffield at the Cutlass Altar to discuss the importance
00:44of advanced manufacturing.
00:46So the focus here today is really urging policy makers to get behind manufacturing.
00:51It's been fantastic.
00:52This event has been held in Sheffield.
00:53It would be great for it to be held here more often.
00:56And it's great to see that everyone is trying to push everything forward for the region
00:59of engineering and manufacturing.
01:01Training is really important and the next generation.
01:04We need to understand what's going on and bringing the next generation along.
01:07And we've also understood really where we need to go with digital technologies and actually
01:12we need to take some action.
01:13We need to do something.
01:14We've sponsored the event through Made Smart today and I found it a really useful place
01:19where a lot of great ideas have come together about industry 4 skills and the experience
01:26and the technologies needed to bring the region forward.
01:29It's been a really, really fantastic day.
01:58Lots of great businesses.
01:59Loads of great conversations have been had and I think people have already, we've seen
02:03businesses and we've seen multipliers getting together, having those conversations, putting
02:08new ideas out there and actually hopefully coming away with new strategies, new developments
02:16and a new way forward really to make sure that the manufacturers, particularly here
02:21in Yorkshire but across the north and again the UK generally, can take advantage of these
02:24opportunities, take advantage of these global opportunities to be able to ensure that they
02:30can continue to invest in the businesses, create jobs, create new jobs, take advantage
02:35of those new jobs and really build a sort of more prosperous future.
