Georgia Tech hosts statewide events this quarter to help Georgia manufacturers

October 10, 2014 By ei2admin

Georgia Tech is conducting a Manufacturing Growth Meeting series during the last quarter of 2014 across the state of Georgia, consisting of educational and networking events designed to deliver actionable tips and tools of the trade to help Georgia manufacturers grow their business. The series is hosted and taught by the GaMEP at Georgia Tech – the same instructors that bring you expertise in the process improvement, sustainability, and energy courses.

Meetings are held in various locations around the state and topics vary based on feedback from the manufacturing companies in each area.  Meetings are currently scheduled to be held in Lawrenceville, Savannah, Douglas, Augusta, Jefferson and LaGrange.

All meetings are $15, include lunch, and are from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

Here are the meetings currently scheduled around the state:
