Focus on Manufacturing is BACK!
In Eugene, we are a community of builders, dreamers, innovators, and idea-generators. Our businesses produce products that reach local consumers and stretch far across the globe. Local manufacturers are building products, jobs, and our economy.
As local manufacturers grow their businesses, challenges arise. With this in mind, we are excited to launch the new incarnation of Focus on Manufacturing to convene local leaders, drive industry awareness, and build a workforce ready to tackle the challenges of a new economy.
Focus on Manufacturing will incorporate:
- Workforce Development - We are partnering with Lane Education Service District, Lane Career Technical Education, Connected Lane County, and others to help increase awareness in middle and high school students of the exciting opportunities manufacturing careers offer.
- Executive Round Table - Every two months we will bring together executives from various manufacturing businesses to discuss common challenges, brainstorm solutions, and share the information that can help this sector grow.
- Industry Awareness Tours- We will be partnering with manufacturing facilities and business to tour facilities in the area on a quarterly basis.
Grab a seat at the table. Contact Joshua Monge, our Director of Economic Development to find out more on this program and how you can get involved.
