Dear Manufacturers,

I wanted to remind you about the AMBayArea Mfg Summit happening in 1.5 weeks on April 29, from 1pm-7pm at the Chabot Space & Science Center (deadline to sign up is this coming Monday).

We’re going to have a great keynote speaker, economist Chris Thornberg, talking about what’s happening with the economy and how it will impact manufacturing.

And there are other sessions on operations, workforce, leadership, etc. including our awards for Manufacturers of the Year. Plus, there are great opportunities for networking.

AMBayArea lowered the price this year (don’t worry, we’re getting the sponsors to make up the difference! :-), so it’s a great deal at $250 for manufacturers (and just $125 for AMBayArea members, check with Shannon for the member discount code).

So come on out, connect (commiserate) with other manufacturers, learn things, and enjoy the evening.

Regards,

Mark
