To help companies in Ontario improve their manufacturing processes, create new technologies and provide
employees with upskilling and reskilling opportunities, Western University has partnered to launch the Ontario Advanced Manufacturing Consortium (AMC), along with McMaster University and the University of Waterloo.
Through the consortium, Western works with industry in Southwestern Ontario to address businesses’ manufacturing challenges by helping understand, assess, de-risk and deploy advanced manufacturing technologies for business growth. Businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) have access to dedicated research expertise and resources at the AMC to help scale their manufacturing operations.
Ultimately, the consortium aims to help strengthen innovation capacity and new product development in companies from various industries, such as automotive, electric vehicles, defense, aviation, mining, medical devices, robotics and automation systems.
