We have outstanding manufacturing companies, both large and small and today I want to call on them to join us in being part of the Make it in Great Britain campaign. "The Science Museum is home to some of the greatest technological advances in history, so what better place for us to exhibit the very best of British manufacturing as it stands today." Director of the Science Museum Ian Blatchford commented: "We're incredibly excited to be hosting next year's Make it in Great Britain Exhibition. The Science Museum and its world leading collections demonstrate some of the greatest engineering achievements of the last 200 years. We hope that as many people as possible visit the Exhibition, and see at first-hand how innovation in British manufacturing is still thriving today" The Make it in Great Britain campaign has been backed from leading companies such as Ford, Brompton Bicycles and Bombardier Aerospace. Joe Greenwell, Ford of Britain chair and William Butler Adams CEO at Brompton Bicyles will act as industry champions for the campaign.
