MT360 connects technology, manufacturing, and VC

The Association For Manufacturing Technology’s (AMT) MT360 Conference will be held May 12-14, 2020, at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, California, bringing together the technology, manufacturing, and VC communities to discuss and demonstrate the role of transformative technologies in the future of manufacturing.

MT360 will showcase and demonstrate the integration of additive manufacturing (AM), augmented reality (AR), cognitive automation, and the digital thread into manufacturing operations.

“The MT360 Conference is part of AMT’s lifecycle strategy around transformative technologies,” says Douglas Woods, president of AMT. “The Silicon Valley and manufacturing technology communities evolved separately, and there are no well-orchestrated paths in the market to bring them together. There is enormous opportunity for collaboration, learning, and investment between these communities to accelerate product development.”
