 New England Regional Defense Industry Collaboration Workshops

The virtual demonstration is part of a NERDIC (New England Regional Defense Industry Collaboration) series on technology and automation.

Colin Cooper, Chief Manufacturing Officer for the State of Connecticut, calls the NERDIC workshops a smart first step for companies curious about Additive Manufacturing.

“My experience as a small business owner is that most small business leaders need to see an actual demonstration of a new technology to gain an appreciation as to how that technology could be beneficially deployed in their operations. I have found this series of workshops and demonstrations to be both interesting and informative.”

Polaris MEP is committed to offering the best business improvement programs to Rhode Island Manufacturers.

In order to achieve that goal and to justify continued U.S. Department of Commerce funding for these services, participants are asked to provide impact data and assessment. You’ll be asked for feedback through a short online survey within 1-3 days of this program and possibly again through an impartial third-party survey firm, 6-12 months after the course ends.

 

NERDIC INDUSTRY 4.0 READINESS WORKSHOPS

The New England Regional Defense Industry Collaboration (NERDIC) will deliver a series of Industry 4.0 Readiness workshops and demonstrations to showcase how emerging technologies can be used to help optimize manufacturing processes in the New England defense manufacturing supply chain.

Each session explores a different technology, including generative design, additive manufacturing, and augmented reality. The overall aim is to help increase capability and competitiveness for the region’s defense manufacturers. For more information, please visit ccat.us/NERDIC.
