SHOWTIME: WESTEC 2010

There's no denying it. Manufacturing is changing in ways never imagined: new economic forces, stiff competition advances in technology, demands to work lean and green, emerging industries and global markets.

To help you address these changes and more, this year's event features dynamic keynote presentations about Aerospace Global Forecasting; how to position your company to be part of future aerospace supply chains; and new Wind Energy opportunities for manufacturers.

Along with the keynotes, show floor presentations will focus on Lean & Green, Global Markets, U.S. Tax Incentives and Health Insurance Programs for Machine Shops. And there are technical sessions that cover Swiss Style Screw Machining, Machining of Exotic Metals, Milling, Drilling and Cutting of Advanced Carbon Fiber and/or Carbon Fiber Laminates and Additive Manufacturing.

Gain deeper insights into buying machinery and manufacturing management. The game is changing. To gain access into new supply chains, WESTEC should be your first stop.
