SOUTHFIELD, Mich. – Lawrence Technological University will host a free Innovation, Design & Manufacturability Workshop on Tuesday, June 9, from 8 a.m. to noon with lunch to follow.
The workshop will be held in room M336 in LTU’s Buell Management Building on the LTU campus at 21000 West 10 Mile Road, Southfield.
The workshop facilitators are Jeff DeBoer, vice president, Genesis Innovation Strategy, Sundberg-Ferar; and Sue Okray, automotive business director, Munro & Associates.
The hands-on, interactive workshop is designed to save time and money for companies launching new products. The workshop will provide key elements of the design and manufacturability process prior to going to market.
The workshop is designed to help companies that are in the process of creating and producing a durable manufactured product. Space is limited, and preference will be given to early-stage, pre-revenue, Michigan-based companies.
The event is hosted by Tex Criqui, director of the LTU Collaboratory; and Mark Brucki, executive director of economic development and government relations at LTU. For more information, contact Criqui at fcriqui@ltu.edu or (517) 518-1446 (mobile).
