Description

Invitation Only for Manufacturing Executives and Senior Leaders

Please join us for the Southwest Connecticut Manufacturing Partnership’s Leadership Luncheon, sponsored by Budderfly.   

Connect with fellow manufacturing executives during a candid peer-to-peer conversation about protecting margins today while preparing your company for the next generation.

Connecticut manufacturing leaders will share how forward-thinking companies are responding to rising costs, capital constraints, workforce needs, and long-term succession considerations. The conversation will explore practical investments that can strengthen operations without diverting capital from the core business. 

Topics will include: 

• Protecting margins amid rising operating and utility costs 

• Modernizing facilities without upfront capital investment 

• Using the family-owned business model as a blueprint for long-term sustainability 

• Turning energy infrastructure into a competitive advantage 

• Preparing the business and workforce for the next generation
