Technology, like rust, never sleeps. As improvements and complications multiply, manufacturers are constantly weighing whether or not a new advancement is right for their business.
Is the cost worth the benefit? Will we be left behind if we don't make this or that change? Are there technology solutions to our challenges that I don't know about?
New York State has several new programs to make the advanced manufacturing support you need accessible to your company.
One of those programs is the Industry 4.0 Advanced Manufacturing Initiative administered by our sister center AM&T. The program has three legs; a direct technical assistance grant, a manufacturing working/networking group called TechEx, and an ongoing webinar series. Information about how to participate is at this link.
