Testimonials

“The public sector also has a role to play in helping smaller companies improve their
innovation processes. One model is the Manufacturing Extension Partnership operated
by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which enables small and
medium-sized firms to tap the knowledge of business experts, including innovation
specialists.”
