The Australian Industry Group (Ai Group) has released the most extensive study conducted into the future of the manufacturing sector in Australia in almost a decade.
 

A clear message from the report is that manufacturers are rethinking and, in most cases, renewing their businesses in the face of global challenges and opportunities. For many manufacturers, this will mean that they need to globalise their operations and forge new growth opportunities to ensure their future survival. Strategic government action to remove obstacles and to encourage innovation and improvements in competitiveness is essential and will complement businesses own efforts in this regard.
