Cambridge’s businesses could win up to £20,000 free consultancy advice in a competition to celebrate manufacturing excellence across the UK.
MP Julian Huppert has urged the city’s manufacturing businesses to get involved and showcase their work.

Julian said: “This is an excellent opportunity to put Cambridge on the map for manufacturing.
“I would encourage all manufacturing businesses to apply not only to win one of these prestigious awards but also to take advantage of the chance to win thousands of pounds worth of free consultancy advice.
“Manufacturing is crucial to the UK economy and we have excellent companies here in Cambridge. This is their chance to publicise their work through a UK-wide competition and show what our city has to offer.”
