Good morning. Although the manufacturing sector has been traditionally slow to adopt new tech, Hadrian, an industrial automation startup, is all about speeding up the process. And it now has a new CFO, West Owens, a veteran finance professional who’s on board with the startup’s mission of re-industrializing America.
Hadrian is building a series of AI-automated precision component factories to enable space and defense manufacturers to get parts 10 times faster and at half the cost of making rockets, satellites, jets, and drones, according to the company. It currently operates a facility in Torrance, Calif., with other sites in development.
