2014 Manufacturing & Safety Event

Innovation Concourse of the Southeast: Manufacturing & Safety

June 3 – 4, 2014
Hyatt Regency Orlando International Airport, Orlando, FL

Registration information

The Innovation Concourse of the Southeast (ICSE) is an exciting event that brings together up-and-coming small technology businesses, industry-leading corporations, innovative university researchers and countless regional resources to foster a perfect network to build commerce.

Here are the main benefits to attending this conference:
  1) Networking with potential clients – those manufacturers that are from large corporations (i.e. Mosaic, Johnson & Johnson, etc.) will have Fortune 1000 and other large clients in attendance (i.e. Disney, Adventist Health, City of Orlando, etc.) and those who provide manufacturing service businesses will be able to network with at least 50 potential small business/high growth customers from FL and other local states.
   2) Networking with asset-improving/enhancing strategic partners – companies on your list will benefit from interacting with at least 50 small tech businesses, as well as several university intellectual property portfolios, who are developing cutting edge/emerging solutions and processes – all of which could create new revenue opportunities for your clients.
   3) Education on new available technologies and new standards for safety – again, this is will lead to either new revenue growth or can lead to cutting operating expenses/preventing lawsuits.
   4) Advocating the needs of the Florida manufacturing and occupational safety landscape to influencers – we intend on inviting US and Florida state legislative and executive branch members and provide a forum for these stakeholders to exchange concerns/challenges facing these industries.

CAT5 Awards (link) formerly known as I2CAN, began in 2011 to showcase Florida’s most innovative technology companies, and pits 10 teams in a final business pitch competition for $150,000 in prizes.
