EIPC Technical Snapshot: Business Outlook A headline in a Sunday newspaper had caught John Ling’s eye as he composed the invitation to this fourth EIPC seminar: “Now, more than ever, we need to talk.” “Better communication with colleagues can help in these turbulent times. Manufacturing industry continues, in spite of all the obstacles, and the need to keep informed has not lessened. Thus, it is that EIPC has decided to run another technical webinar, which is just like one of our conferences, except that you do not have to travel, you do not have a beer with colleagues, you do not enjoy excellent food, and you do not enjoy convivial company.
