Manufacturing companies didn't need to worry about marketing a decade ago. They produced the best possible products and hired good salespeople to sell them. And that was about it.
If manufacturers even thought about marketing, it was as sales support: organizing trade show giveaways, creating sell sheets, buying ad space in trade magazines and making sure the website looked halfway decent.
Essentially, marketing was not a focus, and it was often treated as an afterthought.
But the world of buying and selling has changed. 94% of B2B buyers are now doing their own research online before they even want to engage with a manufacturing company's salespeople.
So, ready or not, marketing has become a new necessity manufacturers.

It is estimated that buildings accounts for 40 per cent of the overall energy consumption in the world, and that people spend on up to 90 per cent of their time indoors. Yet indoor air is five times more polluted than outdoor air. Living in mould and damp buildings can increase the risk of asthma. Therefore, buildings that benefit both people and planet are essential for the sustainable development. It requires relevant stakeholders to join hands and work out a solution from a long-term perspective.

To achieve green energy transition and meet the objectives set out in the COP21 (Paris), and reiterated in COP25 (Madrid), China must focus on energy intensity reduction and create a market for upgrading existing facilities with new efficient and digital technologies, with an emphasis on clean energy even during the pandemic and corresponding drop in energy demand. To recover from the impact of COVID-19 in a sustainable way, China should accelerate investment in upgrading existing facilities with outdated technologies to reduce energy consumption. China has not yet established a framework to control industries’ and buildings’ energy intensity, instead adopting a passive stance based on the anticipated consequences of shifting from a production-driven to a service-driven economy.
