Insight Report explores UK machine building opportunities

The UK is the world's fifth largest machinery producer, which shows we have good strengths to build on. But the machinery economies of the US, Germany and Japan are 6-8 times larger. Right now is a particularly opportune moment to make a bold move there are a number of areas where there is no clear world leader in machinery, but where the UK is well positioned to grasp the nettle.

The AMPI Insight Report highlights the opportunities, details the challenges, voices the solution and provides a roadmap for the future. It also looks at how AMPI can help, but providing support in the forms of access to funding, collaboration and access to expertise the report highlights a number of success stories.

AMPI will support companies who are designing, developing and building advanced machinery. This will bolster commercialisation of new machinery products, growth from domestic sales and exports, supply chains resilience and the creation of high-skilled jobs, as well as benefitting to the wider manufacturing industry through access to new and better technology.

You can gain further insight by attending MachineBuilding.North on 10 April 2025 at the Concorde Centre in Manchester, where AMPI director Dan Brooks will be presenting a workshop detailing how AMPI is helping drive growth in machinery development. Join Dan for his presentation in Workshop Theatre 1 between 13:30 and 13:50.
