Event Mission

Can your business get prepared to transition to manufacturing in the medical device industry?

This event is designed for Ohio manufacturers that are looking to explore the possibility of contracting work in medical device production. The State of Ohio has seen the downturn of manufacturing occurring and many manufacturing jobs are being lost. EMTEC is working with two other Edison Centers, BioOhio and TechSolve, to assist in bringing education about medical device production to all manufacturers in our state.
