That India is emulating the global trend of self-employment is evident from the various startups mushrooming all over the country across a myriad of sectors. It is not the sloth of striving for someone else or the desire for a better work-life balance or more income that is driving the younger generation towards such risk-taking ventures that come with no guarantee of success. On the contrary, they end up putting in more work hours and earning less on an average.

Being an ardent admirer of engineering marvels of the past and present and with a dream job to witness them on a frequent basis, I have groomed myself to notice intricacies in the engineering art when I encounter it.

From gaining visibility to striking new deals, exhibitions and trade shows offer opportunities no business would want to miss out on. It is a strategy that has withstood the test of time, playing a significant role in the success of most machine tool companies that have been reaping rich dividends in terms of experience, product development, while forging relationships, building brand and, most importantly, bringing sales from new markets.

At the outset, I wholeheartedly thank you, “our valuable readers”, for your encouraging words on the refreshed version of MMI. Your continued support and faith provide us the confidence to recognise opportunities coming our way and make the best of them while reaching out to a wider global audience.

However, a different picture emerges when we seriously ponder over the noble quality of loyalty and its attributes.

Modern Manufacturing India (MMI) magazine has had a grand beginning. Our widely circulated bimonthly magazine has been well-accepted by the global manufacturing fraternity and serves as a reading lens to the manufacturing world that is constantly undergoing changes with technology replacing labor.

Welcome once again to Modern Manufacturing India (MMI) magazine July 2017 edition.

We are delighted to bring you the Modern Manufacturing India (MMI) magazine. Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers' Association (IMTMA) now owns this magazine and will publish this under its banner. As you would appreciate it, manufacturing doesn't succeed in isolation. The thoughts, innovations and actions
