The Factory Is the Product - Powering the Cyberphysical Future: Panel & Happy Hour
Every new reactor, spacecraft, and vessel runs into the same bottleneck: the factory behind it.
Join First Resonance for an evening on the how behind the what: how builders are bringing hardware and software together, and how the factories and operations behind their products become a core part of what they're building.
