(Cobourg, ON) July 5, 2019 - On Thursday, October 24th, the Venture13 Innovation and Entrepreneurship Centre (Venture13) is pleased to support the Tri-Association’s 15th Annual Manufacturing Conference guests, giving them the chance to interact, learn and participate in the new wave of technology in manufacturing.
The Cobourg Community Centre, located directly across from Venture13, is the location of the conference’s main activities, including breakfast and lunch, keynote speakers and the tradeshow. Throughout the day guests will have the chance to choose up to four workshop activities located in the Northman Industrial Park, including two plants tours (Cameco/Graphic Packaging), a workshop with the Cobourg Police Service on Cybersecurity, and a workshop encompassing interactive demonstrations at the Venture13 TechZone.
The guests who attend the interactive demonstrations workshop offered at the Venture13 TechZone will see robotic demonstrations, interact with virtual reality training, observe the MicroFactory Co-op (Canada’s only manufacturing co-op) in action, exchange insight with the Durham College Hub for Applied Research in Artificial Intelligence for Business Solutions, and participate in a workshop explaining the many funding opportunities for everything guests enjoyed in the Venture13 TechZone.
“I cannot tell you how excited we are to launch this new conference agenda, we are flipping the standard workshop conference into a real life interactive experience,” said Darla Price, Managing Director or the Northumberland Manufacturers’ Association. “Our goal is to provide value with relevant activities, meaningful keynote topics and giving them the ability to expand their network. This year’s conference, proudly hosted in Cobourg this year, I believe will exceed everyone’s expectations.”
