NeoProducts in the Guardian

Neo CEO, Philip Lelliott, gave an interview today to the Guardian. The newspaper are compiling a feature on businesses in Birmingham - no doubt prompted by news of Neo’s near neighbour: Cadbury, who look set to be taken over by Kraft.

The Guardian wanted to know what attracted a company previously based in Melbourne, Australia to set up a factory in the West Midlands ten years ago. Philip was delighted to explain the advantages of being situated in the heart of England and at the hub of the UK’s transport infrastructure. The region is also home to a highly trained, motivated and flexible workforce. Neo benefited greatly from the skills of the people it recruited, many of whom came from the automotive industry. They helped Neo grow to become a world-leading manufacturer of interactive kiosks.

We look forward to seeing the feature.
