Robert Friedland details the products they make, how they are marketing to clients with current supply chain issues, and the importance of getting involvement in your local community.

Karen Birch-Wosczyna offers a different perspective through her work with Asnuntuck and discusses the stackable credentials available to students as well as how we can move CT manufacturing forward.
