The Rochester Top 100 Companies list is a celebration of successful companies that have risen above economic downturn and business struggles. Join us as we highlight two companies that embraced technology to transform manufacturing into some of the most needed technology today. Both of these companies beat the odds so greatly that they made it to the Rochester Top 100 Companies of 2009! The leaders of these companies will share with you their struggles and strengths, their ability to change and how they strive for continued business success – all while motivating the people around them in a very challenging technological environment.
