This event is a continuation of efforts by the Acton Manufacturing Taskforce, which was established in 2019. The taskforce held the Acton Manufacturing Day in 2019, in which high school students toured the Haartz Cooperation facility, where automobile products are made and shipped all over the world. Further community involvement activities were put on pause due to the pandemic, but resumed with a Summit in December 2021 at Middlesex Community College.
