SINGAPORE, March 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- In a global manufacturing outlook report, Asian manufacturing companies surveyed exhibited the highest investment expectations (in R&D and digital innovation) to transform their business, with a majority of respondents from China, Japan and India indicating they would spend more than six per cent of their revenues on those areas. 25 per cent of the respondents have already poured investment in avant garde technologies such as 3D printing.

To address mounting industry's needs as a consequence of their move towards digital transformation, MTA2017 -- Asia's premier manufacturing technology industry event returning from 4 to 7 April at the Singapore Expo, will open with a host of new and recurring features -- Smart Manufacturing Asia Conference, Smart Manufacturing Asia Pavilion, Capabilities Hub, The Optics & Photonics Innovation Hub, The Semiconductor Innovation Centre, a 3D Printing Seminar and a new Technology Theatre.

"As manufacturing continues to evolve and value creation has become an integral component of the change process, many traditional manufacturing businesses in the Asian region need to become agile and embrace change. The new features, along with the recurring Capabilities Hub, are designed to serve industry players who are looking to leverage on technology and innovation to maintain their market leadership and stay ahead of the change curve," says Mr. William Lim, Project Director of Machinery Events at UBM SES, organiser of MTA2017.

Lim adds, "More importantly, the newfound knowledge and skillsets will ensure that companies and their workforce will be well-positioned for growth opportunities in the new digital manufacturing era."
