Rizz in action. Slay!

This adds context to the MadeSmarterUK and High Value Manufacturing Catapult UK Supply Chain Directory which aims to connect the entire #ukmfg supply chain. ALL manufacturers are on it but need to 'claim' and refresh their data. Have a look for yours!

Profoundly important piece of work. In #ukmfg we call for full blown #industrialstrategy, but it would never be truly effective unless these foundational issues are dealt with. A must read. ukfoundations.co

This is truly scary. Thanks Ed Conway for exposing the fault lines in what we might otherwise have taken for granted as stability. The more we know about these vulnerabilities in the global economy, the more we need to invest in making ourselves secure.

As we wait for The Labour Party's #industrialstrategy, George Dibb of IPPR has listed the 11 - 11! - #industrialstrategy initiatives since 2010. One or two are negative, as in killing previous policies, but then that is still a strategy! We turned the🧵into a📹with his kind permission.

That this had to be written.... 😢

Really interesting, thank you for sharing Richard Jones, and Tom Forth for a very revealing thread!

Can I just say that the decision by Channel 4 News to invite Boris Johnson as a guest commentator on their #2024PresidentialElection coverage is a category error? Analysis should trump (soz) vacuous #celebrity.

Such a great event West Suffolk College 🏳️‍🌈 College, the start of a fantastic series of similar events this year and next organised by WRStirling 🇺🇦 on behalf of ERA Foundation, Design & Technology Association, Made Here Now and Make UK . Lots of details about this great initiative in the post below!

Looking forward to being there with the ManufacturingTV team!

This is very cool. #space

Fascinating insights into the multiple applications that AI has in #manufacturing. Great futureofwork_uk conference at Renishaw.

Deeply concerning that Rachel Reeves chose to clobber business in the #Budget24. This government must fulfil its promise to support industry #ukmfg and deliver #growth.

Great shout out to Make UK Campaigns from Jonathan Reynolds. It's encouraging, but the devil will be in the detail, keeping inter-departmental attention focused on a common goal while being tugged in different directions. But great credit to the Department for Business and Trade SoS for leading on this.

The sooner the GBP - Great British Public - understands what modern #manufacturing is all about the better. That's why the new futureofwork_uk initiative is so good - parents are learning too! #ukmfg

If you've been scratching your head about the Jaguar rebrand, have a gander at this. Fascinating. But the killer question is this: if the new look is intended to woo Gen Z, when will they be able to afford a Jag?

Elon Musk

This is so funny.

Boy, loved him so much.
