Tony Summers, Partner and Head of Manufacturing at Carpenter Box commented: “Ensuring your business remains successful in a changing marketplace means identifying and integrating the best of the new available technologies, among other factors. But when there is a multitude of new technologies arriving, how do you choose the ones that truly transform your business, and make sure you back the VHS over the Betamax?
