The Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce

The Resource Roadshow with Rhode Island Manufacturers

Tuesday, October 13
8:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m.

Running a manufacturing business means constantly balancing growth, workforce, technology, costs, customers and everything in between. There are resources available to help, but knowing what’s out there, where to find it and which programs actually fit your business can be a challenge.

Hosted at Mahr, Inc., RI Commerce, the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce and Polaris MEP are bringing the Resource Roadshow to Providence for a conversation built around what manufacturers actually need.

Join us for a candid fireside chat featuring Daniela Fairchild, Chief Strategy Officer at RI Commerce, alongside representatives from the Greater Providence Chamber and Polaris MEP. We’ll talk about the challenges manufacturers are facing and highlight state and federal resources designed to help Rhode Island businesses grow, invest and stay competitive.
