Meet patriotic data publisher, Frank Russo.
Frank will be speaking at DataContent, and his mission is to explain how the next generation of marketplaces can be the backbones for entire industries. He’s proving it with his new launch, Fabricating.com, which is a simple to use online marketplace for highly complex machinery. While the suppliers are small companies with diverse specialties, they are all located in the U.S. This gives the company a clear focus, high purpose and a solid business model.
Fabricating.com’s SourceNow marketplace helps U.S. suppliers fill their pipelines, and buyers build a U.S. supplier network. It streamlines and manages the complexities of sourcing custom-made parts with multi-line RFQs, comprehensive supplier profiles, and tools needed by engineers and purchasing professionals to carve out next-gen supplier networks that, according to Frank, will stimulate the economy and re- energize our nation of makers.
We’ve asked Frank to address not only one of our main conference themes, but also fill you in on some of the hottest trends in data, including analytics and lead gen, so you can you make your data work harder and smarter so you become indispensable to their businesses.
“The recent flap over the outsourcing of US Olympic team uniforms to Chinese manufacturers was echoed in a survey by the Alliance for American Manufacturing, which reported that the vast majority of respondents say that manufacturing is the key to America’s strength and bringing manufacturing back to the US should be a national priority.
At fabrciating.com we’re taking a positive step in that direction by making sure that OEM manufacturers have critical data necessary to not only identify US-based contract manufacturers but to assess their capability and capacity, quickly and easily, and to enable the complex communication necessary to specify custom manufactured parts and components so that more of the manufacturing needs of the US can be done by the US.”
Join Frank, and close to 200 data producers gathering at DataContent to explore the intersection of Data, Communities, and Markets.
At DataContent, you’ll get a clear understanding of where data fits in your future. Most importantly, you’ll leave with an understanding of the trends that are the most profitable AND the contacts and know-how to incorporate them into your own business.
Our sessions go beyond the data hype—we’re assembling the people advancing, transforming, and disrupting the industry to give you straight talk on why the data business is the hottest segment of the information industry and why it will continue to grow.
