Modern Machine Shop has announced speakers and sessions for its track at the inaugural Top Shops Expo, which will take place in Cincinnati, OH from October 12-14. The program features a breakdown of the Top Shops survey data, panel discussions with shop owners and breakout presentations that provide an in-depth look at tools, technologies and strategies for running and growing a manufacturing business.
Panelists and speakers are hand-picked by the Modern Machine Shop staff to represent the very best in the industry. These industry experts will discuss topics like five-axis machining, automation, supply chain security, digital workflow, workforce development, marketing and much more.
The program includes current and previous Top Shops Award honorees. The awards are given every year to shops that excel in one of the four core categories: Machining Technology, Business Strategies, Shopfloor Practices and Human Resources. The 2021 awards will be handed out during this year’s event.
“Regardless of end market or location, job shops have a lot in common and the path to their success has many of the same hurdles,” says Justin Combs, marketing manager. “Top Shops allows them to share and learn what technologies and best practices are working and connects them with a community that can help them succeed.”
The event will also present findings from this year’s benchmarking survey, as well as trends identified over the history of the survey data. Attendees will receive a complete Top Shops Survey report that gives benchmarking data for job shops across the country.
