New American Renaissance Manufacturing Tour 2022 with Andrew Crowe

We recently had the opportunity to host Andrew Crowe, a manufacturing influencer, who came to Wichita to talk to students at USD259 and local leaders about advanced manufacturing careers.

We worked with a variety of local organizations to organize an event on Friday for Crowe to meet with community members who are interested in advancing careers in manufacturing. Crowe is an enthusiastic, passionate speaker who shared how advanced manufacturing provided him an avenue out of a difficult childhood and into the extraordinary life he lives today. Crowe talked to the attendees about what he’s trying to accomplish, and answered questions.

On Saturday, we hosted a second event with Crowe that was tailored to leaders in the manufacturing industry. Staff and volunteers from Groover Labs demonstrated the capabilities of the Maker Labs, while Crowe spoke more in depth about his mission to help students in underserved communities discover careers in manufacturing.

It was a pleasure to work with Crowe. And, we’re excited to share, he’s coming back to Wichita soon. We’ll provide more information when we have it.
