Before Tim Riebau became the CEO and president of VPI, Inc. — formerly known as Valley Packaging Industries — he worked with the organization as a vendor. “I remember being in there one day thinking, ‘You know this would be really a cool thing to do…You’re running a co-packing business with real customers, employees, deadlines—and yet it’s mission based.’”

In this week’s episode of the NEW Manufacturing Insights , Riebau talks with co-hosts Kate Bruns of Insight and Ann Franz of the Northeast Wisconsin Manufacturing Alliance (NEWMA) about VPI’s mission, the changes the organization has been through in recent years, and why large companies love working with the nonprofit.

For too long, higher education measured success by enrollment and graduation rates, not the ROI students actually need. NWTC is changing that. Under President Dr. Kristen Raney's leadership, NWTC's College 3.0 model treats education like the investment it is — guaranteeing students family-sustaining careers and higher earnings, not just diplomas.

"Our students' whole lives come with them into our building," Dr. Raney says. "They’re here because they trust us to provide an exceptional education that is going to get them into a career and get them a better life. And we want to deliver on that.”

From innovative 8-week course formats to groundbreaking partnerships like its hospital-based training facility with ThedaCare, NWTC is proving that when education aligns with real workforce needs, it's a win for students, employers and communities.

Amanda and Adam Kroener couldn’t find a low-carb ready-to-drink cocktail that they could enjoy on their keto diet so they created their own. Carbliss, launched in 2019, is now distributed in 18 states and is the fastest-growing beverage company in America.

In this week’s episode, the Kroeners talk with co-hosts Kate Bruns and Ann Franz of NEW Manufacturing Insights about the challenges of launching their company, their plans going forward, and how people are responding to their product (including one fan who loves it so much she got a tattoo of the drink).

Resch School of Engineering at UW-Green Bay.

In this week’s episode, Terry and Dr. Vallari Chandna, Associate Dean of the Cofrin School of Business, talk with co-hosts Kate Bruns and Ann Franz of NEW Manufacturing Insights about the new degree programs at UWGB — which includes a master’s in Supply Chain Management — and why these programs are important to helping meet future workforce needs in the region.

Following the loss of her daughter, Melissa Maloney founded A Gathering For You , a business born from a mother's grief that's now working to disrupt a tradition-bound industry.

After struggling to find a space that felt right for their daughter's celebration of life, Melissa and her husband Greg created a venue designed specifically for memorials. Unlike traditional funeral homes, the space is warm and inviting, complete with customizable lighting, comfortable seating and a kitchen for families to bring their own food.

"I just wanted somewhere people could go and celebrate their loved one at a nice venue and not cost $10,000 to do it," Maloney says.
