Is your hardware idea nearly ready for production? Would you benefit from 2 minutes with a manufacturing expert?

In this session we will have representatives from Colorado-based manufacturing companies available to answer questions about their processes and general design guidelines, so bring your questions because the discussion in this session will be driven by those in attendance.

The format we'll follow:
5-minute talk about different prototype stages vs. production
Each representative will give a 5-minute overview of their process and what types of products are a good fit followed by 10 minutes of Q&A from the audience. (total 60-75 minutes). We will hopefully have some physical examples of each process for you to look at.
15-30 minutes of Q&A for all of the panelists at the end
