Abstract

In this final chapter we focus on the implications of our research for the manufacturing sector’s stakeholders. Given the thrust of our book, we do not dwell on macroeconomic policy (others have done fine work in this area) or industry-specific policy (again, others are better placed to do this). Given our findings and the emphasis on ecosystems, we also reject simple solutions such as copying Germany, the USA, Japan or others (although we believe much can be learned from their experiences). Instead we focus primarily on addressing the sector’s pressing needs to retain and attract employees, investment capital and stakeholder support. After addressing these challenges, we identify a number of other implications emerging from the research in the previous chapters.
