The name "Irons in the Fire" holds real significance for me. My father, a talented iron worker and metal fabricator, started a business in the Bay Area, CA in the 1980s called Irons in the Fire. Growing up I learned a ton about the trades of fabrication, welding, and manufacturing and this has fueled my passion for the Manufacturing industry today.
Imagine some of the most incredible advancements in aerospace fuel-saving technology and try to picture what that journey might look like. For Tamarack Aerospace Group this journey was wrought with excitement, hard work, disappointments, setbacks, and most of all success. The company has experienced all of these various stages in the development of their patented Active Winglet technology and have emerged with a highly demanded product. Listen as Nick Guida, Founder and CEO and Jacob Klinginsmith, President artfully describe the tremendous journey and growth of Tamarack Aerospace Group.
