NextFlex, America’s Flexible Hybrid Electronics (FHE) Manufacturing Innovation Institute, has partnered with California Manufacturing Technology Consulting (CMTC), a Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) center in Torrance, CA. CMTC has been awarded a grant by the US Commerce Department’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to help small- and medium-sized manufacturers.
 
“We’re looking to develop approaches for engaging small manufacturers with NextFlex through hands-on assistance and services, and cultivate an enhanced nationwide network of partnerships among NextFlex and MEP centers,” said Paul Semenza, NextFlex director of commercialization. “We are excited and honored to partner with CMTC on this important project and will work closely with them, and MEP centers in Indiana and Georgia, to develop programs that enable small manufacturers to adopt FHE technologies, and benefit from NextFlex activities.”
