Autodesk VRED for CGI

The Walker Advanced Manufacturing Innovation Centre is the research and innovation division of Niagara College Canada and has spent the last 5 years providing SME's with direct access to technology students, faculty, research leads and advanced technologies which bridge the gap between their existing manufacturing processes and much needed productivity improvements to their workflows. The students benefit from the real world experience gained by working on applied research projects or technical services, while the industry partner benefits from identifying new technologies which could be leveraged in their existing operations. Using practical projects examples from companies like Airbus Helicopter, THK, and Bosch Rexroth, attendees will gain better understanding of the academic research and innovation ecosystem available to them, best practices regarding the networking and economic development relationships which need to be established, and the value add academic partnerships can bring in reducing the risk of technology adoption to their business.
