* Where and how to access new sources of capital through the Treasury's GrowNOW program, the SBA, and Ohio Department of Development.

According to John P. Colm, WIRE-Net's president and executive director, "Today 68% of our manufacturing leaders report poor sales are their number one cause for concern where at the end of 2008, 25% were equally concerned about poor sales, tied with the shortage of skilled labor and immediate availability of talent. Without a doubt, the quickest way for us to get out of this mess is to help manufacturers discover avenues to generate new business.'
