Event Details

Hosted by SFMade, SF Office of Economic Development (OEWD), and Economic Development on Third (EDOT)

Join us for a morning of conversation, community, and connection at our Manufacturer Meet-Up & Listening Session, bringing together local manufacturers, nonprofit partners, and City officials to share ideas, challenges, and opportunities.
This event is a chance to:

  • Network with fellow makers and manufacturers
  • Share your perspective with SFMade, OEWD, and EDOT about what’s working and what’s not
  • Help shape future support for the manufacturing community

Enjoy freshly roasted coffee and breakfast treats by Chef Vanessa, and a behind-the-scenes tour of the Bayview Makers Kitchen, a shared-use commercial kitchen space supporting food entrepreneurs.

Whether you’re a longtime manufacturer or just starting out, your voice matters, and we’d love to hear from you.

RSVP encouraged.
