Herbert Spencer once said: “The great aim of education is not knowledge, but action”. Copperberg creates physical and digital platforms bringing together the manufacturing community in order to grow and build relationships globally. So, how do we actually do that? On a daily basis we work hard to improve, develop and innovate our concepts and original content in order to ensure the best hands-on, real life strategies for all our community members. Our ambition is to provide ideas, networking and industry exchange between peers, that inspires and leads to action. The Copperberg team, headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, is characterised by its experienced members with great knowledge who design content and communities to make a difference. And we do make a difference. The complexity of the market and many times the complexity of our members own organisations makes it evident that there is a need for a common ground. A place where industry peers can discuss, benchmark, learn, educate and exchange. We provide the kind of knowledge that cannot be found in textbook examples or mainstream media. But rather knowledge that comes from years of experiences; learnings and mistakes, successes and wins – and how to reap the benefits of these experiences. Our mission to identify the industry’s current challenges and find the most hands-on solutions out there, would never be possible without the great support we have from all our contributors and our loyal network of manufacturers and technology providers. Without the actual insights directly from the industry – we would never be able to provide premium content. For that support we are truly grateful. Lisa Bergström Managing Director
