What is the purpose of M-Hub?
M-Hub's main mission is to bring together the manufacturing and engineering businesses of Yeovil and the surrounding area.
Helping facilitate shared learnings, best practices, and supply chain opportunities whilst having a close group networking opportunity.
Any questions or queries please email the team: mhub@yeovilchamber.org
M-Hub's Mission Statement
"Bringing together local engineering and manufacturing businesses for shared learning, supply chain opportunities, and business support. With the purposes to increase standards and grow the industry in and around the Yeovil area."
What is the spotlight session? 
This is a 20-minute section within the M-Hub meeting reserved for a smaller business that doesn’t have the capacity to host or provide a factory tour around their business premise. This gives the company an opportunity to educate the other members on a history of who they are and what they do. Along with sharing success stories and pain points.
This takes place when there are no factory tours.
What is the format of the ‘Spotlight’ segment?
A business has 20-minute to present. This should include a quick historic overview, who they are and what they do. We recommend that you share your top 3 pain points and their best success story. There will also be a 10-minute slot after your presentation for a Q&A session.
What will I gain from presenting a Spotlight session?
You will gain wider promotion/awareness to all your fellow M-Hub members. We also feel this is the perfect platform for the smaller engineering and manufacturing businesses to have a voice to discuss their business, what they do well, and what areas they would like more help/support.
More importantly, we feel that by voicing your top three pain points and having them discussed in the Q&A session, there this an opportunity for shared learning to help you and others who may be experiencing similar issues.
How do I book my company for a Spotlight Session?
