<img style="float: left;" src="http://media2.hpcwire.com/dmr/kevin-lyons-200.jpg" alt="" width="95" height="70" />Here's a webinar you won't want to miss. Next Tuesday, June 3, 2:30 pm ET, Kevin Lyons of Rutgers University will brief you on emerging tools for advanced manufacturing that will keep you competitive in the world's markets.

Here’s one for your calendar.

On Tuesday, June 5 at 2:30 pm ET, CNBC is hosting a free webinar titled “Competitive-Edge Technologies for Advanced Manufacturing.

The announcement is a little skimpy on details, stating only that “Emerging technologies are giving small businesses new tools to improve quality while cutting costs,” and that the presenter will show you how to use these tools to “become more competitive in the constantly evolving global marketplace.”

But what makes this session of interest is the presenter himself.  

Kevin Lyons is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Supply Chain Management & Marketing Sciences at Rutgers Business School in Newark and New Brunswick, New Jersey.

Here’s an excerpt from his on-line bio: “Dr. Lyons conducts research on developing and integrating global environmental, social, economic, ethical criteria and data into supply chain/procurement systems and processes. His research work includes the environmental and economic impacts on raw material extraction, logistics, manufacturing, consumption, consumer of multiple products and services research, designing and implementing local, national and international environmental economic development systems, waste-to-energy systems and environmental and sustainable social policy and financial impact forecasting (e.g. Sarbanes Oxley Corporate Social and Environmental Impact Reporting). He has also created the supply chain archeology and supply chain waste archeology research disciplines and has researched and written extensively on conducting environmental health-checks on global supply chains and the resulting benefits of reduced risk management impacts and costs.”

No question about it – Dr. Lyons is a heavy hitter.  He has also been awarded the Sierra Club Annual Professional of the Year Award, and the New Jersey State Governor's Award for Environmental Leadership and Excellence.
