The fast rise the world has seen of China and India as prime low-cost manufacturing locations has encouraged some business analysts to claim the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and Japan are being pushed out from participating in a profitable future. Mr. Marsh considers the implications of these changes on the global manufacturing stage both for consumers making purchasing choices and for manufacturers and governments assessing how to participate successfully in the new industrial era.

  • Peter Marsh Author

    Previously, as the manufacturing editor for the 'Financial Times', Mr. Marsh covered and reported on developments in industries relating to manufacturing and has written extensively on a wide range of topics including the electronics industry and technology, economics, the chemicals sector, and manufacturing. Mr. Marsh was named winner in the manufacturing category in the Business Journalist of the Year Awards.

    In his latest book, 'The New Industrial Revolution: Consumers, Globalization and the End of Mass Production', Marsh contemplates and discusses relationships between old and new economies and the future of global manufacturing and he considers the implications of these changes both for consumers and businesses making purchasing and procurement choices and for manufacturers assessing how to participate successfully in the new industrial era we face.

    The rapid emergence of China and India as prime locations for low-cost manufacturing has led some analysts to claim 'old economy' manufacturers — the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and Japan — are being pushed out from participating in a profitable future. Marsh contends if these nations can learn to adapt, and act quickly, opportunities still exist.

    Previous books by Peter Marsh include 'The Silicon Chip Book', 'The Robot Age', and 'The Space Business'.

    Marsh joins Venture Outsource Webinar attendees following recent speaking appointments in Europe and China. Don't miss this important event.
