British manufacturing is at the heart of the UK economy, helping to create jobs and growth.
Ahead of our Manufacturing Summit on 19th June – part of the International Festival of Business 2014 - we want to celebrate the best of British manufacturing. You can help us to tell the world about why Britain is great at making things.
To join in, tweet or blog about the iconic British products and goods that you love, using the hashtag #BuildingBritain. You might also want to follow @bisnorthwest, @bisgovuk, @number10gov and @DPMoffice.
If you know of any great manufacturing companies in your region, take a picture of them with their product, with a "We are #BuildingBritain” sign and tweet it from your company or personal account. The best pictures will be added to the wearebuildingbritain tumblr (wearebuildingbritain.tumblr.com<
http://wearebuildingbritain.tumblr.com/>).
We will be running the campaign from Monday 16 June until Friday 20 June but feel free to join in the conversation online at any time – we will be continuing to showcase the best of British manufacturing long after the Summit ends.
