Designing without 3D -CAD? That was yesterday. The calculation and simulation of computer models are now standard for even the smallest engineering firms. Meanwhile, the next stage of development has begun.

Re-fueling at the pump is a constant source of horror for most drivers, with prices of 1.50 euros per liter of Super now the norm. So it only makes sense that our scientists should be searching for a way to cure us of our petroleum addiction. And the solution could come from advanced, high-efficiency electric motors.

Two-thirds of all CEOs surveyed believe the economy has improved during the past year and half expect further gains during the year ahead. The Vistage CEO Confidence Index was 105.2 in the 1st quarter of 2011, slightly below 106.3 recorded in the prior quarter but well above the 93.7 in last year’s 1st quarter survey. CEO confidence has more than doubled since the recession low of 48.7 two years ago. However, the small decline reflects a renewed uncertainty about the impact of events in Japan and the Middle East on energy costs, consumer spending and inflation. Overall, the majority of CEOs still expect the recovery to continue and their own businesses to continue to grow.
