Buckland & Taylor Ltd. -40 years

摘要

Last year marked the 40th anniversary of the founding of Buckland & Taylor Ltd. This article is a brief summary of those first 40 years, with some observations on the road to success. While at the University of Cambridge, Peter Buckland discovered his lifelong passion: bridge engineering. In 1960 he joined Freeman Fox and Partners, eminent UK bridge engineers, and in 1963 he emigrated to Canada where he worked for a steel fabricator for five years and a consultant for three. The shock of being laid off in 1970 dissolved into his lucky moment as, out of a job, he started Buckland & Associates.
