Time for action
Senior KBB professionals will be debating the KBB future
Each sector of the KBB industry will be represented by a panelist of senior specialists
The industry recognises that too many of us operate in Silos with a need to share and discuss more generic issues and agree solutions.
For example, with apprenticeships, dialogue is not enough — it’s time to take action.
We are launching a series of meetings bringing together senior-level professionals who care deeply about the future of the KBB industry.
These are individuals not only willing to identify common challenges but also committed to driving meaningful change in our sector in the near future.
Together, we stand stronger — and we can achieve more.
We will be identifying and clearly defining the challenges we face, and working together to develop a plan for what needs to change.
Our goal is to spark real progress by taking tangible steps, however small, toward shaping both the future of our industry and a stronger culture of collaboration.
There is nothing like it in the industry yet, its about getting different sectors to communicate to each others. The main idea is shape the industry future.
We will plan an event follow-up with some kind of checkup of progress with taken decisions and actions taken.
“Let’s shape the future of our industry together - starting today.”
Innovation doesn’t happen tomorrow – it begins with the decisions we make right now.
Together, let’s push boundaries, embrace bold ideas, and set new standards that will define the next era of our field.
