Behind the SME with Steve Morris, Senior Leader at the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC).
From helping startups transform Tupperware-box prototypes into world-ready products, to guiding 800+ SMEs a year through automation, funding, and growth - the MTC is quietly powering some of the UK’s most exciting manufacturing success stories.
In this episode of Behind the SME, we go inside the High Value Manufacturing Catapult to explore how the MTC is helping close the UK’s productivity gap. Steve shares what SMEs get wrong about innovation, why adoption beats invention, and how they’re making advanced tech like robotics and 3D printing more accessible than ever before.
🔎 We cover:
- Why the UK lags in automation - and what to do about it
- The funding, tools, and partnerships most SMEs don’t know exist
- Real stories of transformation, from heritage equipment to high-tech lines
Whether you’re a founder, a manufacturer, or just curious about the future of UK industry, this episode is packed with insight, energy and practical advice.
