STC was launched in December 2016 to actively develop technology and encourage innovation for the future. Silverstone is currently home to around 75 engineering businesses, with around 4,000 precision engineering firms within a one hour drive of Silverstone Park.
Dave Smith, UK key account manager at Bowers Group, says: “Becoming a member of the STC will put Bowers Group in an excellent position. We’ll be ‘on the map’ among the vast range of companies working in the region, and this will enable us to assist further with varying metrology needs in all areas of industry.”
As part of its membership, Bowers Group has also been invited to join the Silverstone Metrology Special Interest Group (SIG).The aim of the group is to help accelerate technological development through metrology, leading to a rise in awareness, collaboration and the sharing of best practice. Other members of the SIG include Hexagon Metrology, Bentley Cars and Jaguar Land Rover.
