The show must go on! We have a new show, “Good News Kingston” and it’s filmed remotely via Zoom. Today we interviewed 2 amazing initiatives, “Inspire Local” & “the Spread Innovation Challenge”. Drowned out the bad news with some good, local news on @yourtvkingston!
We are SO proud to see two QICSI alumni ventures, Mosaic Manufacturing and RockMass Technologies working together to quickly produce personal protective equipment for front-line workers (using 3D printers!)🌟👏
