Last week, we told you about The Edge Factor, a new online show about the amazing, creative and challenging world of modern manufacturing.
The goal of the show is to change the face of manufacturing, away from the dull and dirty image of the past to the high-tech version that exists in many factories today.
This Friday, we’re going to have a live web chat with Jeremy Bout, the host and creator of The Edge Factor. The chat will be at 1 p.m Eastern time here on the Changing Gears website.
We hope to ask Bout about his vision for the show, why he started the show in the first place, and where he goes from here. If you have questions, please join us. Or if you have ideas for how to change manufacturing’s image, join us.

If you’ve never heard of The Edge Factor, it’s probably because the TV show isn’t actually on the air – yet.
But the show has been going strong online for over a year now. Jeremy Bout is the executive producer, writer and host. Bout says he got the idea for the show after working as a programmer at a manufacturing plant.
In the pilot episode for The Edge Factor, Bout explains
What I find incredible is that manufacturing is the backbone of our economy. And I don’t think anybody really understands what that means. I think it’s time we changed that.
The Edge Factor is full of dramatic shots, cool graphics and fast music. But can a TV show make manufacturing cool?
