James Selka, DL, CEO of the Manufacturing Technologies Association, says: “MACH 2020 is not just about the technology on show, it’s about how to successfully implement those technologies and ideas into your business. We work hard to ensure we get high-quality speakers discussing the topics that really matter in modern manufacturing. The seminar programme is an extremely popular part of MACH, so we would encourage visitors to register their attendance to the talks as early as possible, because space is limited.”
