2019 Midwest Manufacturing Diversity Summit

WHAT: The Midwest Manufacturing Diversity Summit is an event that will bring together leaders from manufacturing companies from across the region to discuss shared industry challenges and collaborative solutions. We’ll explore these challenges and solutions through presentations, panel discussions, and interactive opportunities.

WHY: The manufacturing industry across the Midwest is an industry with two sides. On the one hand, it is a vibrant and economically strong industry that continues to contribute meaningfully to our region in many ways. On the other hand, it’s an industry faced by multi-faceted issues around pipeline challenges, geographic challenges, and culture challenges.

WHO: The topics of this event will be helpful to those in HR leadership, hiring and recruitment, organizational development, learning and development, and other leadership positions. Attendees will have the opportunity interact with peers from other companies and other cities, gathering new ideas and garnering new relationships.

50% of event proceeds will go to the Ohio Stem Learning Network

OSLN is more than a network that only assists in starting up STEM schools. OSLN has evolved to a network that leverages existing STEM schools and programs to spread effective practices and tools across the state and the nation.

The network is composed of five major groups that are committed to helping the state of Ohio inspire and train the next generation of scientists and technology leaders. The presence of these highly skilled workers, problem solvers and critical thinkers will enable the state to create, attract, retain and grow businesses and industries that can successfully compete in the global economy.
