I thought it might be of interest to some. Please don't use it as a
springboard to schoolyard political insults.

"Harry Moser's career in manufacturing and related areas has spanned four decades, with twenty-two of those years as president of Charmilles Technologies Corporation, now GF AgieCharmilles. During his tenure at Charmilles Technologies Corporation, Harry transformed the company from 6th in its industry to 1st in eight years. A long-time supporter of workforce development and U.S. manufacturing, Moser was named in 2010 to the Industry Week Manufacturing Hall of Fame, and has held leadership positions with the NTMA, National Institute for Metalworking Skills' Board and the Swiss Machine Tool Society. Harry's broad knowledge and experience in the areas of manufacturing economics, international trade and workforce development uniquely equip him to lead the reshoring effort in the U.S."


Harry is a great guy and an ideal candidate for this role. I haven't
seen him for 20 years, and I haven't talked to him for around 10, but
I used to know him pretty well.
