Though the visit of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to Ford’s Michigan facility on April 27 may have come and gone, sweet memories of the historic visit will remain evergreen.The visit, according to Ford, was part of Zuckerberg’s “Personal Year of Travel Challenge” to get out and talk to more people about how they’re living, working and thinking about the future. During the visit to Michigan, Zuckerberg met with Ford employees to learn about their work and how they were incorporating new technology and innovation into the design, product development and manufacturing.
“As part of the visit, he worked on the line at the Dearborn Truck Plant, saw how the company prototypes and designs vehicles at our Product Development Center, and rode in the Ford Fusion Hybrid autonomous research vehicle to get a feel for how the company is preparing for the future as it transforms to be an auto and mobility company,” Ford said in a statement issued in Dearborn, Michigan.
