Members of the Manufacturing Technologies Association (MTA) met online December 8 for the organization’s first-ever virtual AGM. As part of this meeting, the MTA also welcomed Andy Hodgson, strategic lead of digitalization at Siemens, as its new president. Hodgson has played an active role in the MTA for many years as a board member and served as the technical committee chairman for the last two years, stepping down to take on this new role.
Hodgson will serve a two-year term as president of the MTA. He has a wealth of experience in the manufacturing technologies sector as well as firsthand experience of the acceleration of digitalization within the industry. He succeeds Marcus Burton, who received warm thanks during the meeting.
