The past decade has been tumultuous for the global manufacturing sector. Large developing economies made their way into the first tier of manufacturing nations, a severe recession choked off demand, and there was a steep fall in manufacturing employment in advanced economies. Despite this, manufacturing remains critically important to both the developing and the advanced world. The changing nature of the manufacturing sector means that old responses are no longer sufficient to sustain. While manufacturing remains crucial to support economic stability in both developing and advanced economies, business leaders and policymakers must keep track of the pulse of the sector to identify opportunities and challenges coming their way. We have curated some articles from Infiniti’s thought leaders about how the manufacturing environment is changing and what business leaders must do to adapt.
