Developing World-Class Products

Article Abstract:

The Developing World-Class Products conference held by the Confederation of British Industry was held at the Centre Point in London, England on Sep 21, 1992. There was little emphasis on design in relation to product development, but other aspects such as innovation, empowerment in managment and getting closer to customers and suppliers were adressed. William Woollard of Tommorows World chaired the conference and claimed that the future lay with innovations from smaller companies.
