How will manufacturers decide where to make their products in 2015 and beyond?


How will manufacturers decide where to make their products in 2015 and beyond?

Our editors recently attended a presentation by thought leaders from McKinsey & Co. We were so impressed with their insights that we asked whether they would share the presentation with you.

This is an educational webinar available to you as a member of Eng-Tips or ENGINEERING.com.

In this webinar you’ll hear how new technologies fundamentally change manufacturing value chains and processes. Those changes lead to a different way to plan where manufacturers should be making their products.

If you are considering any changes to where your products are manufactured, join us for this informative webinar featuring two of McKinsey’s leading experts on manufacturing.
