Manufacturing Innovation Summit, Maker Faire Set for Hub
In case you haven't heard, the Innovation Hub in Argenta is hosting the Arkansas Manufacturing Innovation Summit April 29-30 and a mini Maker Faire on May 2.
Innovate Arkansas is a sponsor of this first Maker Faire event in central Arkansas.
The summit, from Arkansas Manufacturing Solutions (an ASTA program and also a Maker Faire sponsor), should provide the perfect lead in to the maker event. More on the summit here. A sample:
This two-day event is designed to bring the state's manufacturers and economic players together to discuss, share, and learn about cutting edge manufacturing innovations and technologies that can help grow revenue and jobs, increase productivity, improve quality, and add to your bottom line.

And more on Maker Faire here. A sample:
The North Little Rock Mini Maker Faire is a one day exhibition of creative making. Think of North Little Rock Maker Faire as a local version of Maker Faire Bay Area or World Maker Faire New York, two yearly exhibitions organized by Make Magazine. North Little Rock Mini Maker Faire is one of over 100 “mini” faires around the globe, organized by local grassroots makers.
North Little Rock Mini Maker Faire will host exhibitors, vendors, workshop teachers, panelists and performers from around the region. The faire will take place at the Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub, using its indoor space and the adjacent field.
