What Manufacturing Leaders Are Saying
Insights from the “One Pour Problems” Podcast
“There’s a big mix across the entire manufacturing ecosystem. There are highly automated facilities and there are facilities that are still industry 2.0. And part of my job is to understand that ecosystem but it’s also to accelerate the adoption of those technologies, to understand what are the barriers, like what are some of the things that people are struggling with, with this technology… and how do I help them.”
