EVENT DETAILS
With an unemployment rate of 70 percent in the United States for people who are blind, there is a need for quality jobs. That is where Beyond Vision comes in. Their goal is to provide quality and fulfilling work for people who are blind. During the tour of Beyond Vision, you will see how 3D printing technology, screen readers, lean manufacturing philosophies and poka-yoke techniques make it possible for employees who are blind to do high quality work.
Join us on November 14 to learn what their customers already know about Beyond Vision’s capabilities.
