'It's also an opportunity for them to meet their counterparts at other companies to do the same job so they can compare notes and decide what's common practice.'
Pender added an event like this also helps young professionals with workforce development. Vendors, sponsors and special guests shared their target approach and manufacturing tracks within the industry. More than 250 professionals representing 99 companies were able to unite.
