| The Small Business Conundrum | | |
CAMT's G. 'Ravi' Ravishankar was invited to the recent MIT Manufacturing Summit 2011 to speak about "Innovation in Manufacturing: The Small Business Conundrum." The Summit focused on the essential components and growth opportunities for manufacturing and innovation to fuel U.S. economic growth.
