Laurie A. Harbour to Present Manufacturing Trends at AMT Conference
The Association For Manufacturing Technology (AMT) will welcome Laurie A. Harbour, President and CEO of Harbour Results, Inc. (HRI), to AMT’s upcoming 2016 Global Forecasting & Marketing Conference (GFMC) October 19 – 21 in Miami. Harbour will outline how manufacturing companies can thrive in today’s ever-changing economic climate by knowing and understanding the trends that will impact their businesses.
For her presentation, Harbour will share her expert insight on current changes and trends in manufacturing, including the geographical shifts in manufacturing throughout North America and how these trends impact manufacturers, particularly contract manufacturers and those serving the oil and gas industry.
“The outlook for manufacturing is positive, but there are headwinds with which companies must contend,” said Harbour. “At GFMC, we will examine those challenges and explain how companies can weather the current storms and position themselves for future success.”
Harbour founded HRI in 2005. HRI works primarily with small and medium-sized manufacturers to improve their business operations. HRI offers operations and strategic expertise and proprietary assessment programs to equip companies for unexpected economic and customer obstacles.
