This summer, NextFlex welcomed interns Neve Apte, a Junior studying Computer Engineering, and Casey Chen, a Senior studying Manufacturing Systems, to our San Jose Innovation Hub.

On July 8th, OSD ManTech hosted the eight of the DoD Manufacturing Innovation Institutes at the Pentagon to enable a group of senior leaders to learn more about the impact of the MIIs and the ManTech Program.

Currently located in Albuquerque, Sterling saw a post in a local social media group sharing a flyer for an Internet of Things (IoT) bootcamp at Central New Mexico Community College (CNM).

DOD ManTech has a critical responsibility to execute advanced manufacturing technologies and processes to improve our nation’s security and economic prosperity.

The workshop featured keynote speakers and breakout sessions aimed at providing attendees with insights and guidance on how artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are transforming the field of hybrid electronics manufacturing.

Neve Apte is a computer engineering major at San Jose State University. She always gravitated towards STEM subjects in school, finding them to be the most interesting – especially physics.
