SME SPEAKS
reaction never gets old. The stories they share and their excitement in receiving this much-needed money reminds me of why I’m so passionate about the Foundation, its work and overall impact. If you’re looking for a cause to champion this holiday sea- son (and beyond), you don’t have to look any further than the SME Education Foundation. You too can make an impact in manufacturing and strengthen its future workforce for many years to come. Visit
smeef.org to see how you can help.
The papers submitted for the conference will be reviewed by the Scientifi c Committee of NAMRI/SME (North American Manufacturing Research Institution of SME) and will be pub- lished in “Procedia Manufacturing,” which is available through Elsevier. Quality papers will also be selected for fast-track publication in SME’s Journal of Manufacturing Systems (JMS) or the Journal of Manufacturing Processes (JMP). Register at
