Manufacturing Talk Radio is expanding its network of shows under MBC, the Manufacturing Broadcasting Corporation, by launching its newest show, A Global Perspective with Dr. Adriana Sanford with Executive Producer and Show Host Dr. Adriana Sanford. Dr. Sanford will cover international jurisdictional legal topics that can put U.S. manufacturers, their executives and even their employees at risk of lawsuits, detainment, arrest, fines and severe penalties when laws of one country conflict with laws of the United States and leave manufacturers in a legal Catch-22. This ongoing series will include guests from Corporate America, International Non-Profits, Think Tanks and Academia who will address various aspects of the complexities and conflict in laws of nations, as well as aspects of Global Supply Chain Ethics, Privacy, Data Protection, Hack Attacks, Counterfeit Product Deterrence, Anti-Corruption and Anti-Money Laundering Laws, and Regulation of Human Rights-Related Risks that can impact manufacturing. Following this introduction, hosts Lew Weiss and Tim Grady will interview Paul Ryzner of OPS-Solutions and the innovative Light Guide Systems used to simply work tasks and dramatically increase the speed of operator knowledge.
