Discussion:
the future of counterbalanced trucks?

Hello everyone,

I work for a research focused design consultancy and we just started a project about the future counterbalanced forklifts. We are looking for people who purchase counterbalance trucks as well as people who sell them. I was wondering if any of you would be available for a 1 hour interview about your views on the future of the industry.

This interview is for internal use only and will only be used to guide our design process. We would be willing to compensate you $100 for your time and ideas.

Also if you would like to refer us to someone else in the industry and they complete a 1 hour interview we will compensate you both with $100.

If this sounds interesting to you please contact me at:
bjohnson [at] dcontinuum [dot] com or 617-558-8371.

Thanks,
Beth

The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
