“Doing Business with NASA and Their Primes” was presented by CONNSTEP, Aerospace Component Manufacturers, Connecticut Office of Manufacturing, Connecticut Center for Advanced Technology, and the U.S. Commercial Service.
“We are incredibly excited to welcome NASA, their prime contractors, and CT industry partners to campus for this event,” said Hisham Alnajjar, the dean of UHart’s College of Engineering, Technology, and Architecture and interim director of the NASA CT Space Grant Consortium.
Alnajjar delivered the day’s opening remarks in Wilde Auditorium. He was joined by Connecticut Chief Manufacturing Officer Paul Lavoie, who served as event emcee.
