Together, we can build a vibrant and sustainable manufacturing ecosystem—one that empowers students, fuels innovation and drives economic progress in Connecticut,” says Chris Dimou, president and CEO, Roto North America, who also leads the Middlesex Chamber Manufacturing Council and is a co-chair of the South-Central Manufacturing Partnership.
Roto's initiatives
Roto’s initiatives include factory tours and internship programs, aimed at fostering local manufacturing career awareness. As part of its commitment, Roto has already hired a former intern from the Transition Academy project, reinforcing its dedication to shaping the future of manufacturing in Connecticut.
“Manufacturing continues to be a high-growth sector nationwide, and we want to do everything we can to ensure that Connecticut is at the forefront of the jobs and economic growth it provides,” says Governor Ned Lament.
To achieve this, collaboration and education are essential. By offering students opportunities to learn about manufacturing careers, Roto hopes to contribute to the overall prosperity of the industry and ignite passion in the next generation.
