Connecticut Manufacturing Coalition
Manufacturing Operations Roundtables

The Connecticut Manufacturing Coalition is hosting a Manufacturing Operations Roundtable, held on the third Thursday of each month, providing opportunities for manufacturers to network and share best practices on topics important to the operations within their organizations. Share successes, find new solutions and meet others facing the same obstacles that you do on a daily basis.

These dynamic roundtables will be a mix of plant tours, open group-directed conversations and guest speakers. Led by a Connecticut Manufacturing Coalition facilitator, the conversations are informal and confidential.

If you are involved with manufacturing operations, take this opportunity to network with your peers, share your experiences with others and receive feedback on your challenges.
