Engineers, who know systems and processes, are generally separated from operators, who are often only trained on specific machines. New manufacturing technologies, whether in robotics or digital production, are transforming factory floors. Advanced manufacturing requires workers with a technician’s practical know-how and an engineer’s comprehension of processes and systems. Companies that want to move into advanced manufacturing often struggle to find people who know how to integrate technologies to optimize the whole system, manage technological advances, and drive innovation. We call this worker the “technologist.” As advanced technological manufacturing progresses, technologists will be essential in the adoption of next-generation factory systems. We believe that training programs for technologists can empower both incumbent and aspiring workers to be knowledgeable, productive, and adaptable contributors to a more robust US manufacturing economy (Liu & Bonvillian, 2024). MIT is excited to provide pathways for employees to advance in their careers, create training that allows companies to fill key roles, and build a workforce that will strengthen America’s industrial base.
The New Global Standard for Borderless Money Movement Mr. Yunus Sevimli Co-Founder & CTO, Almond FinTech: Almond FinTech: https://www.almondfintech.com/
Almond FinTech is setting the new standard of how money moves across borders. Using Almond's infrastructure, financial institutions around the world send and receive funds with minimal loss and at the speed of the internet. Born out of MIT and Harvard, Almond's proprietary tech optimizes the routing for each transfer through multiple blockchains to identify the best path. The result is reliable, fast and affordable money transfers. The solution is equally applicable for foreign workers who send $100 to their families and businesses who pay $1M to a foreign supplier. Almond currently operates in 10+ countries in the Americas and APAC, and supports 40+ forex currency pairs.
The 2021 SENSE.nano symposium will focus on human subjects research, exploring how sensors and sensing systems can enable current medical studies and future clinical practice. Broken into two half-day webinars, SENSE.nano 2021 will investigate human health through various technologies including motion capture, physiological monitoring, and sensing tools for the study of bodily fluids.
Discussions and presentations around MIT research, clinical needs, societal changes, and implications will serve to help celebrate the reopening of the expanded Clinical Research Center (CRC) at MIT.
