Celebrating British Manufacturing at the Make UK Conference 2020
On 25 February Bensons were proud to join over 800 senior executives from around the country at the annual Make UK National Manufacturing Conference.
Make UK champions British manufacturing and manufacturers, with the conference giving delegates the opportunity to share inspiration and insights to help shape the future of manufacturing in the UK.
The day brought together industry leaders and business correspondents, plus the newly appointed Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy; Alok Sharma.
During the day inspirational speakers shared insights and analysis with thought - provoking talks on the future of the manufacturing sector.
Key learnings from the conference
The morning workshops gave the opportunity to look at the importance of using apprenticeship schemes to nurture new talent within the industry. Apprenticeships is a topic that we feel passionate about at Bensons so this was a great opportunity to investigate apprenticeship schemes further.
In the afternoon, we looked at the importance of investing in technology, sustainability and people within manufacturing and the results this investment can deliver.
As well as providing lots of inspiration to help us continue to drive our business, and our sector forwards; the day offered a great chance to network with our fellow manufacturers.
Commenting on the success of the day, Helen Culloden, Bensons’ Managing Director says: “It was a wonderful opportunity to hear from leaders within manufacturing and share our own experiences with colleagues from across the sector.”
Three New Apprentices
We see apprenticeships continuing to be a key element of the future for Bensons. As technology and processes continue to evolve, it remains vitally important to identify, foster and develop the talent needed to fully exploit the opportunities created.
BBQ
We brought the team together last month to celebrate a successful few months, and to make the most of the sun whilst we still had it.
Big Control Panels, Little Control Panels
We work across multiple sectors, which means that we need to be able to design and manufacture control panels to address the needs of many different customers and many different projects.
Mid Year Review
Excellent customer relationships underpin everything that we do at Bensons. This has continued through 2024 with the addition of new customers to our portfolio and repeat orders from customers who were new to Bensons last year.
