National audit, tax, advisory and risk firm Crowe is teaming up with experts from the manufacturing sector to present a major briefing on the future of advanced technologies.

“Demonstrations will include how they can activate surfaces with laser and plasma processes and how to increase the automation of processes with robotics.”
