T H A N K YO U for attending today's inaugural event. Your participation in today's event is helping us continue with investing in making college affordable for those interested in pursuing a manufacturing-related degree. The significant difference between the Alliance and other organizations is that it is manufacturer-led. I knew manufacturers had to get out and share their stories, including what occupations and skills are needed in advanced manufacturing. As a fellow manufacturer, you know our passion for the industry. With that said, who is better to share that message than us? In the 12 years since the Alliance was formed, we have seen dramatic results from manufacturers working together to promote manufacturing. Local tech colleges have seen increases in enrollment of manufacturing related programs in excess of 300%. The Alliance membership has supported $230,000 in college scholarships. In addition, the Alliance was actively engaged in working with New North colleges in now having a degreed engineering program in the region. Thank you again for supporting today's event!
