New Study Finds Workforce Challenges Emerge as a Top Concern Among CPG Manufacturers

Jul 10, 2024 by Mansi 0 Comments #CPG, #Dilip Sawhney, #Inc, #Rockwell Automation, #State of Smart Manufacturing Report

National, July 10, 2024—Rockwell Automation, Inc., the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, today announced the results of the 9th annual “State of Smart Manufacturing Report: CPG Edition.” The global study encompasses the responses of 158 leaders from CPG manufacturers, inclusive of home and personal care, as well as food and beverage manufacturers, across 17 of the leading manufacturing countries.

This year’s report highlights the evolution of the CPG industry, specifically about utilizing emerging technologies to maximize workforce potential, improve forward planning and minimize risk. CPG leaders acknowledge that neglecting to adapt to the industry’s transformation can stifle growth and competitiveness, especially considering that the manufacturing sector could see up to 2.1 million unfilled jobs by 2030 if current workforce challenges are not addressed.

The State of Smart Manufacturing Report reveals several key global findings for 2024. Workforce issues, inflation, and the energy crisis emerge as the top external obstacles faced by CPG manufacturers. Despite these challenges, 86% of CPG manufacturers are either using or evaluating smart manufacturing technology. This trend is underscored by a 26% year-over-year increase in technology investments, now comprising 27% of operating budgets. Notably, blockchain technology ranks second among the top 10 investment areas for CPG manufacturers. However, training current employees on new processes remains the leading workforce-related challenge. Additionally, product quality stands out as the most critical factor in CPG manufacturers’ ESG programs.

Dilip Sawhney, Managing Director, Rockwell Automation India, said: “India’s CPG sector is at a pivotal juncture, where the integration of advanced technologies with a well-trained workforce is crucial to address industry’s evolving business challenges and sustainability goals.”

“We are committed to supporting Indian CPG manufacturers on their journey towards smart manufacturing. By leveraging our deep industry expertise and comprehensive solutions, we aim to help companies meet current demands, strengthen competitiveness, build resiliency, drive innovation, and achieve long-term success,” added Dilip.

CPG manufacturers are prioritizing technologies, including smart manufacturing and automation, that enhance and augment the value of their employees to attract, engage and retain their workforce.

LOS ANGELES, June 24, 2024  — Last night, Friday, June 21, Vans’ week-long Paris takeover culminated in a bash blending the energy of Paris Fashion Week, Go Skateboarding Day and Fête de la Musique—at epic scale.

OTW-Logo Logo

Welcoming the skateboarding, streetwear, fashion, art and entertainment communities of Paris and beyond, the OTW by Vans Checkered Future event featured a monumental installation set on the hill of Montmartre below the Sacré-Coeur Basilica.

Designed by OTW by Vans in partnership with PLAYLAB, INC. and California Skateparks, the installation’s large-scale skate bowl played host to a live skate exhibition paying tribute to the unconventional art derived from skate culture. Vans Skate Team from around the world including Efron Danzig, Curren Caples, Mami Tezuka, Tania Cruz, Elijah Berle, Diego Todd, Martino Cattaneo, Stafhon Boca, Anthony Van Engelen, Rowan Zorilla, Hugo Westrelin, and Willow Voges Fernandes jammed the installation throughout the evening. At the summit of the butte of Montmartre, a checkerboard DJ platform overlooking Paris hosted performances by Kaytranada, Venus X, Busy P and Tatyana Jane, and a headlining DJ set by JUSTICE.

Alongside Drieke Leenknegt, Global CMO of Vans, Ian Ginoza, Vice President, Creative Director for OTW by Vans, and Steve Van Doren, Vans Ambassador and Son of the Founder, guests included Emily Ratajkowski, Paloma Elsesser, Dev Hynes, Bella Poarch, Meadow Walker, Omar Apollo, Jonathan Anderson, Danielle Haim, Fai Khadra, Haze Khadra, Christina Paik, Kim Shui, Moses Sumney, Malick Bodian, Haider Ackermann, Ross Lynch, Devyn Garcia, Yumi Nootenboom, Alva Claire, Rocky Xu, Benji B, Pierce Abernathy, Mike Eckhaus, and Sam Richardson.

Bringing to life the disruptive approach of OTW by Vans, the most aspirational expression of Vans product design and experiences, the event at Sacré-Coeur builds upon recent OTW experiences; most recently, a skateable installation, designed by PLAYLAB, INC. in collaboration with Sterling Ruby, during Frieze Los Angeles.

Earlier this week in Paris, Vans hosted a skate jam on Tuesday, June 18, honoring skateboarding pioneer Anthony Van Engelen and his impact on footwear design progression with the launch of the AVE 2.0. This was followed by the opening of Vans Brand Curator and legendary photographer, Atiba Jefferson: Skate Photography Exhibition, in partnership with Architecture c/o Virgil Abloh™️, on Wednesday, June 19. Ending with OTW by Vans Checkered Future, these moments set the stage for a new storytelling approach launching this July.

Telix Pharmaceuticals Limited completes the acquisition of ARTMS, Inc.

Apr 12, 2024 by Sujata 0 Comments #ARTMS, #Inc, #Telix Pharmaceuticals

Friday, April 12, 2024
Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada 

ARTMS Inc. (ARTMS) is pleased to announce that the acquisition by Telix Pharmaceuticals Limited (Telix) has been completed. This acquisition further enhances the vertical integration of Telix’s supply chain and manufacturing by providing a greater level of supply chain and regulatory control over the production of key isotopes.

ARTMS will support the high efficiency, large-scale and cost-effective production of commercially important medical isotopes for Telix’s portfolio of products, such as zirconium-89 (89Zr), gallium-68 (68Ga), technetium‐99m (99mTc) and copper-64 (64Cu), and will continue to partner with additional radiopharmaceutical companies to ensure that these critical isotopes are available on demand for patients. In addition, ARTMS’ portfolio of advanced cyclotron technologies has immediate application and differentiation for Telix in the production of future commercially important alpha-emitting, therapeutic isotopes, including actinium-225 (225Ac) and astatine-211 (211At).

The history of ARTMS is rooted in a Canadian government funded project focused on solid target production of 99mTc. After that project was successfully completed, the innovation continued and resulted in a full suite of PET products. In 2017, ARTMS Inc. was formed with support and seed funding from Quark Venture, through their Global Health Sciences Fund (GHS) and founding institutions TRIUMF, BC Cancer, Lawson Health Research Institute and the Center for Probe Development. In May of 2020, ARTMS completed a $20M USD Series A fundraising that included GHS and welcomed Deerfield Management to the ARTMS family. In the subsequent years ARTMS has played a critical role in alternative production of medical isotopes with a focus on accelerating the production capabilities of the world’s most commonly installed cyclotrons. The collaboration between ARTMS’ unparalleled team, its investors and founding members has resulted in a truly differentiated organization.

Solomon Partners Securities LLC acted as financial advisor and Norton Rose Fulbright Canada LLP acted as legal advisor to ARTMS during the negotiations and due diligence process related to the acquisition by Telix.
