Build your skilled workforce and unlock supply chain opportunities to fuel your company’s growth.
The Workforce Development Summit is a free, one‑day conference exploring solutions to two of the most pressing challenges in industry: Building and sustaining a skilled workforce, and developing a supply chain capable of meeting the growing demands of the semiconductor and defense sector.
This event brings together manufacturers of all sizes and specialties with peers, community partners, educators, and subject matter experts to discover strategies that will help your business grow and adapt.
