Smart Manufacturing Mindset™
Smart Manufacturing Mindset™, presented by CESMII - The Smart Manufacturing Institute & SME, is a monthly webinar where we challenge guests to think differently about manufacturing. We'll explore the nuances that hide in plain sight – behind the acronyms, techno-jargon and misinformation – to get to the truths that hold real value for real people in the industry.
In partnership with the Department of Energy, CESMII was established as a primary advocate and resource for Smart Manufacturing, including networking, education and workforce development, funded research projects and a Smart Manufacturing Innovation Platform to enable your digital transformation.
