Hey Grand Rapids!
Here’s a manufacturing networking event that’s actually… FUN?!
Join us for a refreshing Manufacturing Happy Hour hosted by podcast host Chris Luecke on May 21st at 6-9 PM. The event is sponsored by SwipeGuide and organized in collaboration with Women in Manufacturing Western Michigan chapter.
The Manufacturing Happy Hour slogan is “stay innovative, stay thirsty” - and that’s what this event is all about. Dedicated to ideas that shape the future of manufacturing for the better: more innovative, inclusive, and motivating.
Why Attend?
Live podcast recording: we’ll host an expert panel of manufacturing leaders and record them live on stage. The focus of the panel discussion is around skills gaps in manufacturing and how to bridge them in smart ways.
Host: Chris Luecke of Manufacturing Happy Hour
Panelists: Ryan Lillibridge (VP at Mission Design & Automation), Willemijn Schneyder (CEO at SwipeGuide) and Ann Wyatt (podcast host of Workforce 4.0 and industrial recruiter)
Networking with purpose: Engage in meaningful dialogues with industry peers and frontline innovators transforming the manufacturing landscape.
Beer and bites: last but not least, it wouldn’t be a proper manufacturing happy hour without local beer and snacks (and there will be a photo wall as well).
Who Should Attend? Everyone especially...
Frontline Supervisors & Team Leads
Manufacturing Industry Leaders
Training, Capability, and Development Managers
