The Digital Factory 2023 | Boston, MA
Manufacturers of all sizes have realigned their organizations, strengthened their foundations, and explored new methods of production in response to the stressors of the last few years. These adaptations have changed how businesses interact within the global manufacturing network, and those who thrived have made not only themselves, but the network as a whole, stronger.

Hosted by Formlabs and Autodesk, The Digital Factory creates a space where ideas from global business leaders, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and innovators converge. The fifth Digital Factory conference on September 13 in Boston, MA held discussions around emerging technologies, preparing the new workforce, and building the future of supply networks.
