October has been an exciting month for SFMade so far! We had our Grand Opening Celebration recently where over 500+ guests including Mayor Breed joined us to celebrate the West Coast's first Manufacturing Foundry. Then, we celebrated Manufacturing Day by partnering with a couple of SFMade businesses and AutoDesk to provide tours to the public.
We're also looking forward to a couple events in November including our Bay Area Urban Manufacturing Summit where over 400 stakeholders will join us to discuss the future of manufacturing and how we can all work together to retain and create middle-income jobs for a more equitable Bay Area. You can find more information about the summithere.
Lastly, we'll be having our 38 Makers Holiday Fair at Pinterest HQ on November 3rd. The Fair will be a great opportunity to meet local manufacturers and peruse their handcrafted products! You can find more informationhere.
