Northern Nevada Manufacturing Meetup at Press Start Arcade & Bar

Northern Nevada’s manufacturers are navigating the same game: workforce challenges, rising operational costs, and the constant pressure to modernize while staying profitable. But here’s the thing - you don’t have to play solo. PRESS START is a free networking event designed exclusively for small-to medium manufacturers in Reno, Sparks, Carson City and surrounding areas. Join us at Press Start Reno (yes, the arcade bar!) for an evening of real conversation, cold drinks, and connections that truly matter.

This isn’t a trade show. There’s no keynote speaker droning on about “synergy.” This is manufacturers meeting manufacturers, swapping war stories, and building the kind of peer network that helps you solve problems faster. And to give you a head start, we’ve assembled a Power-Up Team—four collaborators who specialize in the exact challenges you’re facing:
🔧 Custom Components Expert – Metal and plastic parts sourced right

💰 R&D Tax Credit Specialist – Unlock cash you didn’t know you were owed

🏦 Commercial Banker – Growth-focused financing that gets manufacturing

🏭 Commercial Real Estate Broker – Find, expand, or optimize your facility

Whether you’re running a 10-person machine shop or managing a 200-employee production floor, this event is for you. Space is limited to 50 attendees to keep the conversation meaningful. Grab your spot, bring your business card, and get ready to press start on the next chapter for Northern Nevada manufacturing.
