Automation is without a doubt the way of the future in manufacturing. But automation is not just bringing in robots and machines to replace labor. It is about retaining good paying jobs and increasing efficiency in the workplace.

Join the Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce to hear from Todd Basque, an engineer from CryoXtract Instruments who has vast experience in consulting and working with manufacturing employers around Massachusetts, including many in Central Mass. Todd will provide his insight, including misconceptions about the benefits and drawbacks of automation, how automation enhances efficiency, and how it can be leveraged to positively impact workforce and employment. Also MassMEP’s very own Ellen Ellsworth, Innovative Growth Services Director, joins them to talk about her experiences advising manufacturers around the state about preparing for future growth.
