With summer showing signs of abating some of us are reflecting already on 2009 as a challenging year, however, following the magnificent attendance of LASER World of Photonics in Munich in June the industry is very much alive and optimistic.
 
With this jubilant feeling we are delighted to welcome a new partner Pyreos, featured on this page, and seeing early stages of business with new partners Sheaumann Laser announced in our last newsletter.
 
I extend a warm welcome to everyone, to meet our Team at Photonex 2009 and MM Live (see back page) to discuss how we can support improved quality products at competitive prices.
